Arnold Schwarzenegger is coming to South Korea in late June to promote the fifth “Terminator” film, which will be released in Korea on July 2.

The Hollywood actor is scheduled to arrive in Seoul on June 30 for a three-day promotional trip and press calls, according to local distributor Lotte Entertainment, Tuesday.

Emilia Clarke will also visit Seoul between July 1-2 to join promotional activities with Schwarzenegger.

Schwarzenegger has starred as the titular Terminator in four of the five “Terminator” sci-fi action movies, including the 1984 original.

After starring in “Terminator 2” (1991) and “Terminator 3” (2003), he declined to act in the fourth installment in 2009 due to his political career at the time, when he was serving as Governor of California.

Clarke, known for acting in TV series “Games of Thrones,” makes an appearance as a female fighter and John Conner’s mother.

Korean actor Lee Byung-hun plays a supporting role as villainous robot assassin T-1000.

Set in 2017, “Terminator Genisys” relates three battles in the past, present and future. The sci-fi movie deals with a future battle in 2029 between human resistance fighters and enemy robots Skynet, a past battle in 1984 to save John Conner’s mother and a present-day battle in 2017.

Schwarzenegger last visited South Korea two years ago for “The Last Stand,” an American action comedy film directed by a South Korean film director Kim Jee-won.
