Arnold Schwarzenegger Reveals Unconventional Training Method For The Terminator’s Gun Sequences

Screen legend Arnold Schwarzenegger has revealed the extraordinary lengths he went to prepare for his role in 1984’s The Terminator. Considered one of Schwarzenegger’s most iconic roles in a decades-long career as a Hollywood action star, director James Cameron was initially reluctant to meet with the Conan the Barbarian star for the role of the human Resistance fighter Kyle Reese. However, Schwarzenegger would ultimately impress Cameron with his insight into how the villainous T-800 should be played, eventually earning the role the studio was infamously pushing for O.J. Simpson to play.
