Arnold Schwarzenegger Was Originally in the Running to Play Kyle Reese
When Schwarznegger was first approached about the film, he was in the running to play the heroic Kyle Reese, the role that ultimately went to Michael Biehn.
“It was a total coincidence because I didn’t even try out for Terminator,” Schwarzenegger once told Howard Stern. “I was trying to be Kyle Reese, and during the lunch when I met with James Cameron, the director, I kept talking all the time about The Terminator.”
