Can anyone beat the 7 time Mr. Olympia winner, Arnold Schwarzenegger? The 75-year-old actor has made a huge comeback on Netflix with 2 major projects. One is his first-ever series FUBAR, and the other is a documentary, Arnold. In his documentary, the actor revisits many memories from the past, including his first meeting with his Terminator co-star, Linda Hamilton.

Every bodybuilder thinks his body is the greatest. Surely, the Commando actor was one of them until he met Hamilton. Because, as he shared in his documentary when he and Linda Hamilton first met, he was surprised to see her muscles. Schwarzenegger wondered, “I can’t believe that son of a b*tch is f***ing more cut than me,” as reported by Entertainment Weekly. Before they started filming Terminator 2: Judgement Day, director James Cameron asked everyone to have dinner together.

At the dinner, the former governor of California met Linda Hamilton for the first time. She came in, removed her sweater and Schwarzenegger saw her arms. That’s when he was shocked and thought it was like a miniature. Because he could see her veins on the biceps and triceps. Nevertheless, they both got along and worked their magic on the film.

While the former bodybuilder was in awe, Linda Hamilton was extremely excited about the meeting with the legendary actor.

Linda Hamilton was dying to show off her incredible muscles to Arnold Schwarzenegger

Hamilton was not only a bodybuilding champion. Actually, she starred in several tough-guy action movies as well. She recalled how excited she was when she met the iconic actor. She revealed she was proud to show her muscles to Schwarzenegger. Despite being a little startled by the perfectly fit physique of his co-actor, Schwarzenegger was thrilled to work with her. The film starring the two muscular actors together grossed $500 million dollars globally and became the highest-grossing movie in 1991.

Although at first, Schwarzenegger was against the idea of his character being the good guy and did not kill anyone. Ironically, the Austrian actor also once rejected the role of Terminator, as he barely had 27 lines in the entire movie.

Despite everything and all the differences, the movie is still a cult favorite among fans. Are you also a The Terminator fan? What do you think about Hamilton and Schwarzenegger’s friendship? Let us know in the comments below.
