Co-writer William Wisher told the Script Apart podcast that in the build-up to the original Terminator, the studio had wanted Arnold to play Kyle Reese, The Terminator's protagonist. Schwarzenegger returned to reprise his role, but in Terminator 2, he becomes a hero, a robot with something approaching a conscience. He abandoned this idea because, in the 1980s, he had no idea how it would be achieved technically but also because he knew that John Carpenter was making The Thing, and he was worried his idea might be too similar.Ģ7. In a junket at the time, James Cameron said that in his original treatment for The Terminator, he described a liquid metal robot from the future that could disguise itself as objects like sidewalks and vending machines - a major characteristic of the T-1000, Terminator 2's villain. Furlong turned out to be incredibly well suited to the part of a rebellious kid living with foster parents because, he said in a 2020 podcast interview, he had run away from home and was living with his aunt and uncle.Ģ8. When he acted in a test scene with Linda Hamilton, who played his mother, he says that he got bashful and “almost got written off the list.” At the insistence of the casting director Mali Finn, Furlong worked with an acting coach, came back, and managed to get the role despite still feeling nervous.Ģ9. Edward Furlong, who plays John Connor in his first screen role, nearly didn't get the part. Arnold Schwarzenegger returns in T2, this time as a hero.
