Arnold Schwarzenegger Fought James Cameron Over Most Iconic Line -- And Lost


Arnold Schwarzenegger Fought James Cameron Over Most Iconic Line -- And Lost

Arnold remembered the director telling him, "Don't tell how to f---ing 'write'", on set.

Arnold Schwarzenegger almost did not say the famous line "I'll be Back" from 1984's "Terminator".

James Cameron, the director and action star of the new Netflix documentary "Arnold", revealed that the quote was the cause of many disagreements during filming.

We'll do this scene in the police station at some point during the shoot. The line was, "I'll be back." Cameron remembered that it wasn't supposed to be a big deal. It was meant to say, "No problem, I will come back."

"Arnold didn't tell me he'd be back for some reason." "Well, just keep it simple and say, 'I will be back'," I replied. However, there was clearly tension on the line... it kept coming back.

Schwarzenegger stated in the documentary that he thought the line was "funny", and it did not fit the "machine-like dialogue" of his character. Schwarzenegger wanted to change the line to "I will be returning" which he thought was more accurate.

"He asks, Are you the author? Schwarzenegger recalled Cameron asking. "I said 'No', and he replied, 'Well don't tell how to f---ing type'."

Arnold decided to go with "I'll Be Back" and the rest of film history. The low-budget movie was a huge hit, grossing $78,3 million. It spawned a franchise, which is still releasing new installments in 2019. The movie marked a pivotal moment in Schwarzenegger’s career.

It was unheard-of for Time magazine to select it as one the top 10 films. "It even scared Jim Cameron," said Arnold. "All of the sudden, I found myself on a roll."

"Arnold", a new Netflix original, is now streaming.
