United Kingdom. After premiering on UK screens earlier this year, the highly anticipated hit US spin-off, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles is released on DVD on Monday 11th August, courtesy of Warner Home Video. Starring British actress Lena Headey (300, St.Trinians) as Sarah, season one packs an action-fuelled punch which will keep you on the edge of your seat with stunning visual effects and high octane events.
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles follows Sarah and her son John’s (Thomas Dekker - Heroes) nail-biting journey through a dark and treacherous world as fugitives from the law. Picking up in 1999, two years after Terminator 2: Judgement Day, this nine-part series kicks off with The Terminator tracking down John to his school and attacking him. He is startled when a class-mate comes to his rescue and confesses that she is in fact a robot sent to protect him. Realizing that he is someone special, reluctant hero John and his tough, independent single-mother Sarah focus all of their efforts on stopping the birth of a technological enemy through Skynet’s activation and hopefully change the fate of humanity.
Pursued by tough-talking FBI agent James Ellison who believes Sarah and John are deranged, and aided by Cameron (Summer Glau), a fearless new female Terminator who poses as a student at John’s school and whose sole mission is to protect mankind’s future leader, the trio make a time jump from 1999 to modern day Los Angeles 2006 in an effort to help fulfil John’s destiny and save the world from an unstoppable war.
The DVD is packed full of unmissable extras including deleted scenes and bonus footage.
