I've always thought that casting him in the first "Terminator" film was one of the best casting decisions ever made. He was, of course, incredibly intimidating physically. Then, precisely because he didn't have flamboyant acting chops, he played it straight, with no emotion at all. Then, his "accent" made him sound a little more exotic, at least to American audiences. If you had cast someone who tried to show more range and emotion in that character, it wouldn't have worked nearly as well.

OJ Simpson was also in the running to star in The Terminator. Could you imagine how different the movie would've been if he got the part?

Yep

Yes. Pick up where they Ended it, King Conan on The Throne

[@ronblack7870]

i think pumping iron was a breakthrough . it showed his abilities and how smart he was the way he played mind tricks on lou ferrigno and also his humor . i remember seeing a clip for it on the tonight show and i thought that will be a good movie. it's still a classic. it opened the door to conan the barbarian.

I remember that I was so upset when he became governor in my great state. But now I look back at his policies and they were so incredible and now he's still doing incredible things for the environment and California. I love him and I love this story! 💕

[@gregDino32]

Back then I was also not happy either regardless he has accomplished a lot in his long life and inspired billions.

[@mr.doctorcaptain1124]

Arnold was the embodiment of the American dream. You work hard, you risk high, aim high and finally score high if the market deems you worthy. I hope we're not loosing that today.

[@nateman79]

Key word ‘WAS’?.. lost it all when he said ‘screw your freedom’ and demanded people get injected with an UNPROVEN ‘product’

[@cullenkehoe5184]

He was already famous after winning Mr. Universe because a popular documentary was made about him training to win Mr. Universe called Pumping Iron in early 70's. He got a cameo on Lucile Ball's variety show in the mid 70's. Got the movie Hercules in NY in mid 70's. He had plenty of exposure...wasn’t a nobody.

[@c.o.n.collectingofnostalgi889]

Why doesn't Arnold ever talk about the movie he did with Kirk Douglas 1979 The Villain ?, he was funny in that movie. It showed he had not only the action star quality with his awesome physical presence but he could be in a comedy which he then proved years later in Kindergarten Cop 🙂

[@camq-py7bs]

7 Olympia tittles, huge actor and governor of California. What a life.

[@Familytime1]

Not many people on the planet succeeded in sports, entertainment, business and politics the way Arnold did 🇦🇹 🇦🇹 🇦🇹 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@jimmynelson9376]

All movies after Hercules in New York were hugely successful, of course. I enjoyed all of them. But, we can't forget the first movie that started it all, "Hercules in New York". Thank you Arnold for all the sacrifices for your fans, we appreciate you.💛👍😁

[@BeegYoshi24]

Fuck yeah! Love Arnold's story & his 80s/90s movies! Conan will always have a special place in my heart

[@SGWinstar8844]

I know Hercules in New York may have not been popular, but I watched it with delight. I'm not sure if it was supposed to be a comedy, but it made me laugh a few times. It was do good.

[@drhkleinert8241]

Everybody i showed that movie had fun and laughter. That whats about. You FEEL how many fun everybody had while filming this...yes, its a pure comedy.
