"Terminator 2: Judgment Day" opens with pure confidence. James Cameron introduces his hero through action, presence, and silence rather than dialogue. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Terminator becomes iconic the moment he steps on screen. The film redefined what an action sequel could be. Decades later, it still feels unstoppable.

Arnold Schwarzenegger reveals he never even auditioned to play the Terminator “It was a total coincidence because I didn’t even try out for Terminator, I was trying to be Kyle Reese, and during the lunch when I met with James Cameron the director and the producer John Daily, I kept talking all the time about the Terminator” “I said to Cameron, whoever is playing it I just want you to be clear, he has to train himself to disassemble weapons and to put weapons together and to shoot and to load the weapons often blindfolded, totally blind, because a Terminator can never ever look down at his hand at what he’s doing because he’s a machine, he’s a robot” “When he walks he has to have a certain walk, when he scans and looks around he has to have a certain scan, it has to be absolutely clear at all times that this is a machine with no human behaviour” “This went on like this for an hour and James Cameron looked at me at the end of the lunch and he said so why don’t you play Terminator, you understand him so well, this is exactly what we need, and I said no no no Jim please, I’m an actor, I counted the amount of lines this guy says, it’s 27 lines, then Conan I had 128 lines, so I’m not gonna go backwards, you can give it to someone else, I want to talk a lot, I want to perform, I want to be the leading man” “He says I will make that guy the leading man, it’s called the Terminator, I will shoot it from below up, you will look heroic, and don’t worry about killing all those people because you’re a machine, no one is gonna blame Arnold, you’re a machine”

Terminator 2: Judgment Facts -Director James Cameron asked Stan Winston to direct a teaser trailer. Cameron did not want the trailer to just be early footage, and so with a budget of $150,000, Winston created a trailer that showed a futuristic assembly line churning out copies of Terminators, all of which looked like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Cameron was pleased with this trailer, as he had fears about audience reactions to trailers showing Schwarzenegger returning as a Terminator (after the Terminator in the first film was clearly destroyed). The teaser ran over a year in advance of T2's release and was shown before another Schwarzenegger hit film, Total Recall (1990). -This is the only "Terminator" film to win or be nominated for an Oscar. It won four out of the six it was nominated for. -There was concern as to how realistic CGI would look when it came to the helicopter going under the bridge, so the pilot did it for real. -According to director James Cameron, Linda Hamilton suffered permanent hearing damage in one ear during the elevator shootout because she did not insert her earplugs after removing them between takes. -Lots of Edward Furlong's voice had to be re-dubbed by Furlong again in post-production, because it changed during shooting. -Industrial Light & Magic's computer graphics department had to grow from six artists to almost thirty-six to accommodate all the work required to bring the T-1000 to life, costing US $5.5 million, and taking eight months to produce, which ultimately amounted to 3.5 minutes of screen time. -Michael Biehn was first considered for the role of the T-1000, in a complete reversal of roles with Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was now a hero. -Linda Hamilton's then twenty-month-old son, Dalton, played an infant John Connor in a playground dream sequence. -The sound used for Arnold Schwarzenegger's shotgun was actually two cannons. -Over one million feet of film was shot and printed. -Over one million feet of film was shot and printed. -Denzel Washington turned down the role of Miles Bennett Dyson
