So did NRS ever address why they didn’t put the actual movie skin in they used for the reveal trailer? Surely they received rights to use Dark Fate version fully no? There’s no resemblance to the earlier movie looks, so must have been too expensive. Maybe Arnold messed with using his likeliness in any shape or form, which would explain both skins and voices lack of resemblance.
Any info would be appreciated!
it's most certainly that , due the Dark Fate movie, the copyright holders just allowed NRS and WB , to use the character if they could make it resembling the Dark Fate version only, since , the movie and the DLC just came out with few months of time separation among them .... so, kinda they allowed the use permission of the character, but, wanting to take advantage of him in order to promove the new Terminator movie, so, using the MK11 version as propaganda , marketing strategy and advertisement for the movie ....
fact is, the movie flopped (it's a crap bad movie that tainted the Terminator franchise, hehe) and they restricted NRS in their creative field, not allowing using freely the Terminator character, and so, because of this, NRS just thought right, sort of "why spend millions to have Arnold voicing this DLC, if we can use only the Dark Fate version, it just not work, not worth the full investiment" ...... and so, they opted for an impersonator of Mr.Schwarzenegger, that , I'm sure, was much more cheaper to hire, hehe !
for Rambo, is another story, the scenario for them (NRS) was much more favorable, and so, they were allowed to use all versions of the character, and Sly himself, did all the voice acting work, so, Rambo will be a much more faithful and amazing version on MK11, than the Terminator one, ha !
