    Production I.G, the renowned Japanese anime studio that created the Ghost in the Shell anime, will be working on it besides Skydance Media, which produced the last two Terminator films.

    In his official statement, Tomlin thanked Netflix and Skydance for this chance to break conventions and subvert expectations.

    "His response was, 'Ishikawa, are you out of your mind?' At that instant, I was confident we should get onboard... Our team at Production I.G is putting their heart and souls into creating this series," he added.
