Linda Hamilton & Michael Biehn Q&A at Comic Con

Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn answer questions about Terminator, James Cameron, Arnold Schwarzenegger and more at Wizard World Comic Con in New Orleans, LA.

[@ldl239]

'i came across time for you, sarah. i love you; i always have' ... one of the most romantic lines ever....

Michael Biehn is such a cool guy!

[@Christian39521]

What's funny is that they both still have good chemistry together.

+Christian Garcia Noticed that too Chris, immediately. Thought it was cool, kinda sexy. Heck, as a matter of fact, exactly like in the movie, ha haaaaaaa!!!

[@kikisdeliveryservice2750]

Fun fact Michael has admitted that he feels like he actually fell in love with Linda during filming. She was such a kind sweet and loving woman. They didn't hookup or anything theywere both at the time married. But they had a chemistry

I've heard on set, James let them actually do it in the love scene. :| And that was his wife :B

I would say he's the hottest action hero ever!

Me too. They were so magical in the original Terminator.

Linda and Michael are such great actors but just don't make enough movies. I would love to see them together again. Even in a romantic comedy.

Biehn did a lot of movies, but most of them are low-budget crapola. He got this thing about cheap horror flicks, which does nothing with his talents.

[@personanongrataus]

I love you, Michael Biehn! Thank you for bringing Kyle Reese to life. He is one of the sexist men ever brought to the big screen. Hicks was another. And Linda Hamilton, you're a hero of mine. Always will be.

Michael biehn. My all time favorite actor. He is so badass and cool in all his movies. Good guy or bad guy. He's very underrated in my opinion

[@stonedavid4845]

I've never really seen anything else done b Linda Hamilton except for Dante's Peak, but Michael Biehn I've seen in several other movies like The Rock, and Tombstone. He is an outstanding actor who is very underrated. I feel like Arnold Schwarzenegger was the star and all of the Terminator, but Michael Biehn was the bridge that made the movie that much more awesome.

[@TheOriginalMoc]

besides terminator I only ever seen linda in children of the corn' you should give it a try.

[@Moviefan2k4]

I love Michael's story about Arnold around the 14-minute mark. Younger people today just don't know what it was like, for a world to exist before Arnold Schwarzenegger was a bankable movie star. But 35 years ago, he was a former bodybuilder and relatively new actor, known mostly for "Conan the Barbarian". Michael was right too, about Arnold not being able to speak English very well back then; its partly why his character had so few lines.

[@fotoautomatmusic]

And he isn't a great actor, he just got good parts because of his physique and he was ok at acting but the characters worked for what he could offer, it was kind of pure luck and timing. All respect to him, he did incredibly, but its a certain type of film. Biehn to me has the sensitivity and looks to work across such a diversity of roles, even as he has aged and isn't cast for his looks he still works across a more diverse range. 80/90s was a really interesting time for film..

[@MAC-mo9cj]

Arnold could speak perfect english in 1984 and fluently too. Michael must've been joking around there. If you ever get the chance watch the docu-film pumping iron in 1975 you'll see he spoke perfect English

[@norightturn7047]

Two of the best actors out there. Every time Michael Biehn showed up in a movie you knew it was going to kick ass and Linda Hamilton is extremely versatile. Was very surprised at how buffed she got for T2. That took a helluva lot of training but she totally nailed that role. It's amazing how she can go from soft and feminine to one of the strongest women in movie history. I wish they'd put both in the new Terminator film, even if it's just a bit part. Hell, I think they should bring back every major actor from the series for cameos. I'd love to see Robert Patrick too. He's not a very big guy compared to Arnold and I was worried about him playing the major badguy but man did he not only totally do his role justice but also made us all believe he was even more badass than Arnie which is no easy feat to pull off.

[@personanongrataus]

Jamie Pinson Robert Patrick's T-1000 made Schwarzenegger's Terminator look like a pussycat in comparison. He was one scary liquid metal dude!

[@CooManTunes]

Jamie Pinson I'm watching T1 now and it is truly fascinating how she transformed for T2. She's such a cutey pie babe in the first movie!

[@Snagprophet]

Jamie Pinson The difference between Cameron's Terminator films and the subsequent ones is that at all times the characters are doing something. Linda Hamilton develops from an ordinary woman to a fighter, so initially she is saved but then she is thrown into a literal drivers seat while Kyle shoots/throws bombs. There wasn't really any point where she's a back seat character. In T2, John would've died at the start if he didn't save himself on his bike. He needed Arnie to save him, but the reason he got away for so long was because of himself. Arnie is pushed to his limits and often he would've failed his mission had the other characters not put their weight in. Sarah Connor would've died if she didn't personally escape out of her cell, she instantly grabs a gun and starts shooting. At all times the characters pull their weight throughout the film. When I compare it to T3, they mostly take a backseat role. John drives the van at the start, Kate flies a plane and shoots once but it doesn't really feel they're doing a lot.

[@ADZ01982]

The non millennial generation of actors. Still humble and genuine nice people.

Linda is being 100% truthful. She really does just want to talk to people she meets. She will ask you questions and want to get to know who you are. She's a little funky as a personality because of her bi-polar but she is genuinely a very warm and nice person.

[@genzowakabayashi2766]

Linda is so into Michael still after all these years, compliments him on every occasion in every single Comic Con. I even got an idea like she 'accidently' picked his bottle despite looking at the bottle and then glancing Michael maybe even thinking "that's as close to a kiss as we can get" don't get me wrong... I would love to see them together as they are the best. I also was surprised about MB digging so into his character in Terminator and reaching out for such lecture. I wish (as Polish) to talk to him about that what seed this idea and who or what made him reach for this book in practicular

[@MsBluheart]

Have always wanted to meet these two at a con!! Thanks so much for uploading this. Seems like two fun and pretty earthy people, as I had hoped.

[@mrchiledonut]

Due to those two characters that they played in The Terminator, is what makes it one of my favorite sci-fi action movies, because I felt it worked well as an action movie, but what set it apart was its story; the future and past story which was interesting, but also the love story between these two. That kind of thing was also brought into Cameron's sequel, though it wasn't about a romance, but a father (Terminator), and mother and son, which also set it apart. I liked Arnold as the Terminator, he's a huge part of it, but if it had just been him without the human story, it would just be another standard action movie.

[@geocache99]

that's what talented director without much budget can do - develop the story and play it out through terrific actors he chose; james cameron wrecked his later projects when obscene amount of money was made available to him by studio execs.

[@Puncturedlung]

Really badass to hear that he's making his own movies! Hell yes. Love to know this dude is working.

[@johnmellor2153]

Alex Cantrell I seen the Divide - great film. The Victim which he made was meh...He's got some work to do with film making. It's fair enough that he is making low budget films, but there is one scene with an obvious rubber gun. Can't get hold of a real gun in America??

[@SchmokinJoe]

[@BarbaraGordonBurnside]

Reminder that we COULD have had a Terminator Genisys with Linda Hamilton... but no, the studio didn't want an aging Sarah Connor, and so they recast the role with Emilia Clarke as a 19 year-old Sarah... and then Terminator Genishyt totally bombed at the box-office.

[@DiegoMartinPintos]

[@Wyzzkyd]

3:17 He said it himself, that's exactly why Kyle Reese and Michael himself is such a hero to everyone. But no they had to go ahead and find a Channing Tatum type to ruin the role.

[@juliapigworthy]

+Zenzi Sage So true, the future soldiers should be lean, almost starving, rag tag, sewer rat soldiers like Micheal Biehn's Kyle not buff Spartan types like in the recent movie.

[@SeanODea25]

Julia Pigworthy Even (To be honest I hope I don't trigger anyone) I feel like Salvation sort of had the lean ragged look down. (Somewhat)

[@juliapigworthy]

I was a kid when the first Terminator came out and I remember it as a big hit. Weird to hear the stars talk about it as a “slow burn” and taking years. I saw it fairly late in the original release and I remember feeling like one of the last people on earth to have seen it.

[@Chrille5782]

*Happy 60th Birthday Linda*

[@Theocracy8]

Damn! And she's returning for the third instalment of Terminator?! I don't know how she's gonna be capable to reprise her role. But despite that, I'm hyped.

[@Balnazzardi]

Well there can be ofc stunt-doubles for the most physical stuff :D I mean the most important thing would be that she can act like she did in Terminator 2 otherwise, and I see no reason why she couldnt...so im really excited to see her coming back and if FINALLY we would get worthy successor to the first 2 Terminator movies... I mean T3 and Genisys were not as bad imho than some others would say, but I agree fully that after T2, none of the 3 movies since then achieved that same kind of quality, great acting and atmosphere that the first 2 movies had.... Now Im just wandering who they are gonna cast John Connnor in that....I think they failed miserably at the casting with all 3 movies that came after T2....Christian Bale was basicly the only one I could "buy" as future John Connor, but otherwise Salvation really sucked.... Obviously they cant cast Edward Furlong anymore, the guy unfortunately went really downhill after American History X....so anyhow I just hope that they are able to cast some-one good and fitting for the role of John.

[@monkeyb1820]

both of them were awesome in t1. Just watched TG and these kids couldn't compare (although the girl did look a bit like Hamilton).

Michael was wrong at 25:51, the director of Predator is John McTiernan - which also was great at that time by the way.

[@NDoraku]

+Ricardo R. M. (cardorm) Yes u are absolutely right, Predator was McTiernan. Biehn arguably did mean Total Recall this was done by Arnie and Verhoeven. Verhoeven´s best was arguably Robocop from 1987...the only robot movie which is even more brutal than all Terminator parts. The director s cut of Robocop - the scene when bad boy Boddicker kills Alex Murphy - ruined my childhood it was so fucking brutal. Verhoeven liked violence and blood a little bit more as Camron did.

This is so cool! Kind of wish they would bring Edward, James, Robert, and Arnold up there too since they were all iconic characters from the first two Terminator films too. People talk about what a tough minded badass Trinity was in The Matrix but I think you got to drop Linda Hamilton (Terminator/Terminator 2), Susan Sarandon (Thelma & Louise), and Sigourney Weaver (Alien/Aliens) in there too since they all preceded Angelina Jolie and Carrie Ann Moss's portrayals of physically intimidating combat fighters in The Matrix and Tomb Raider! =)
