‘Terminator Genisys’ Trailer: J.K. Simmons Just Wants to Help Sarah Connor

Arnold Schwarzenegger, Emilia Clarke and Jai Courtney also star in the July 1 release

Oscar winner J.K. Simmons just wants to help Emilia Clarke save the world in a new 60-second preview of “Terminator Genisys.”

“I want to help you, I do, but I gotta understand,” Simmons tells Clarke, who plays franchise heroine Sarah Connor. “I know what’s going on here has to be really, really complicated.”

“We’re here to stop the end of the world,” she says.

Fortunately for “Whiplash” fans hoping to see a nicer side of Simmons, the actor who plays a detective in the sequel, says: “I can work with that.”

Hopefully he lives long enough to work with franchise staple Arnold Schwarzenegger, who returns as the heroic cyborg teaming with humanity to stop Skynet from causing Judgement Day.

Paramount Pictures is releasing “Terminator Genisys,” directed by Alan Taylor (“Thor: The Dark World”), on July 1.
