Dayo Okeniyi, who played Thresh in The Hunger Games, has signed on to play the son of Miles Dyson, who was the Director of Special Projects at Cyberdyne Systems and portrayed by Joe Morton in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Dyson was the inventor of the neural-net processor, which would eventually lead to the development of Skynet. Due to this, he inadvertantly became the man most responsible for Judgment Day. His family was briefly seen in the film, before Dyson joined the T-800, Sarah Connor, and John Connor on a fatal quest to destroy Skynet. 

Okeniyi joins a cast that is said to feature the return of franchise star Arnold Schwarzenegger as the titular Terminator and adds Emilia Clarke (Game of Thrones) as Sarah Connor, Jai Courtney (Jack Reacher) as Kyle Reese, Jason Clarke (Public Enemies) as John Connor, and J.K. Simmons (Spider-Man) in an unspecified role. Alan Taylor (Thor: The Dark World) is set to direct. 



Terminator Genesis hits theaters July 1, 2015.
