Here’s the pitch: Dave (Kevin Kline), a loser running a temp agency in D.C., is conscripted by the Secret Service into posing as the President of the U.S. Put on your best workout gear and get ready to do some bicep curls, ‘cause here it is: Men’s Health’s full ranking of every Schwarzenegger movie (excluding the truly minor stuff). In that time, he made gems, and since he’s stopped being the T-800 (insofar as he can ever really stop being the thing that made him a household name), he’s made others. It took time for him to become the T-800. Arnold didn’t start out as Arnold, after all Hollywood didn’t catch on to the awesome might of his charisma until a decade into his film career. What he’s less celebrated for is his dramatic work, the movies that don’t require him to swing around bazookas or machine guns, or to beat down bad guys.

The movie's not out yet, but we've got hope that it could wind up snagging a strong spot on the list we've put together below. Dark Fate finds Arnold returning to the franchise, along with James Cameron (as a producer) and Linda Hamilton (as Sarah Connor!) returning to the franchise for the first time since Terminator 2: Judgment Day. With the forthcoming release of Terminator: Dark Fate, Arnold is ready to dip his toes into the 2019 movie landscape that's already seen the release of what's now the highest-grossing movie of all time, and a number of crowd and critical favorites. But however one chooses to acknowledge Arnold Schwarzenegger, one can’t help acknowledging his importance in action movies from the 1980s all the way up to now.Īnd he's keeping busy, too. He goes by many names: Arnie, Ah-nuld, the Terminator, the Governator, the Austrian Oak, Conan the Republican, the Machine.
