Everything to know about Terminator Zero
In 2022, the world has been ravaged by androids. But the world wasn't always like this. Rather, the future became a war zone after a series of mistakes made years prior. Perhaps the knowledge of what can become of androids cannot be erased, but maybe a life of androids taking over can, in fact, be prevented.
Here's the official synopsis of Terminator Zero below:
"2022: A future war has raged for decades between the few human survivors and an endless army of machines. 1997: The AI known as Skynet gained self-awareness and began its war against humanity.

Caught between the future and this past is a soldier sent back in time to change the fate of humanity. She arrives in 1997 to protect a scientist named Malcolm Lee who works to launch a new AI system designed to compete with Skynet’s impending attack on humanity. As Malcolm navigates the moral complexities of his creation, he is hunted by an unrelenting assassin from the future which forever alters the fate of his three children."
