Terminator: Dark Fate is just around the corner, with Linda Hamilton set to return in the iconic role of Sarah Connor. While we've already seen a preview of her in the role, the latest trailer for the James Cameron-produced and Tim Miller-directed sequel puts Connor in the spotlight, showing that she's still got it even after 27 years.

Set in a timeline that follows Terminator 2: Judgment Day and ignores the rest of the sequels (T3Salvation, and Genisys), Dark Fate stars Hamilton, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mackenzie Davis, and Gabriel Luna among others. The clip shows Connor and Davis' Grace fighting for their lives against Rev-9, a new Terminator sent back in time to kill the latter. And of course, it wouldn't be a trailer for a new Terminator film without a reference to the classic first two entries: "I'll be back," Connor proclaims.

Speaking to Deadline, Terminator creator James Cameron, who’s returned to the franchise as a producer on Dark Fate, said he and the team spent several weeks batting ideas around “so we would have something to pitch Linda.” They found something big, looking at it as “a three-film arc, so there is a greater story there to be told. If we get fortunate enough to make some money with Dark Fate we know exactly where we can go with the subsequent films,” Cameron said. 

Check out the trailer for Terminator: Dark Fate, which hits theaters Nov. 1, above.
