He has also been nominated for various awards for his roles in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Junior, and True Lies. In Stay Hungry, one of his early roles, he won a Golden Globe Award for Best Acting Debut in a Motion Picture. Schwarzenegger has received several awards and nominations for his work in films. On February 11, 2011, just over a month after leaving office, Schwarzenegger announced he would return to acting. Although Schwarzenegger's acting career was put on hiatus due to his position as Governor of California, he also made several cameos in various films while in office, including The Kid & I and The Expendables. His other film roles include Commando, The Running Man, Predator, Total Recall, Last Action Hero and True Lies. In the 1980s, Schwarzenegger became his primary character in two film franchises: as Conan in the Conan series and as The Terminator in the Terminator series. In addition to films and television, he has appeared in music videos for AC/DC, Bon Jovi, and Guns N' Roses. He has appeared mainly in action and comedy films. For his first film role, he was credited as "Arnold Strong", but was credited with his birth name thereafter. He began his acting career primarily with small roles in film and television starting in 1969. He will continue to remain a man who made a difference - be it in the world of body-building, cinema, or politics.Austrian and American actor, film producer, businessman, retired professional bodybuilder and politician Arnold Schwarzenegger has appeared in over 40 films, and has also ventured into directing and producing. ![]() It is beautifully told, and the visual choices employed by director Lesley Chilcott are enjoyable (especially loved that dimly lit room where Arnie sits and glances at photographs). Considering the overall picture, this is Arnold telling his version of his story. ![]() The separation from his wife Maria and the late acceptance of a child-out-of-wedlock are also discussed, and surprisingly, there's a short scene of Arnie and his neglected son (who resembles him the most) working out together too. In fact, it is clearly reflected in the way how Arnie lives his life in his mansion mostly around a bunch of animals (and not his family), and only one of his children agree to feature in the series, and even she doesn't offer a sound bite. Thankfully, his failures are not brushed aside as insignificant, and they're duly acknowledged. His personal life also goes for a toss at this time, with past demons catching up to him. Part 3 was truly the most discerning, given how his political career boasted greater dramatic highs and lows compared to his film career. But when you look at Arnie's filmography, you wouldn't stumble across many memorable characters except for The Terminator, and that isn't the kind of role you get a Golden Globe or an Academy Award nomination for. They created a pop culture icon that Americans and people around the world could look up to. It's the same thing that WWE did with Hulk Hogan back then. This is the episode where Arnie gets a bit self-indulgent, and he, for sure, indirectly propagated the idea of masculinity among mainstream audiences by being the invincible saviour (or the killing machine) - bikes, tanks, leather jackets, cigars, and a beefy body all part of the "star" package. Part 2 focuses on what we already know a lot about, with folks like James Cameron, Danny DeVito, Jamie Lee Curtis, and his arch-rival (of the times) Sly Stallone offering insights into his much celebrated film career. For those who have seen Pumping Iron, there probably won't be much to chew on, but hearing it all from the horse's mouth once again (w/ remarkable footage) is always captivating. Part 1 is interesting to those who'd like to know more about his uneasy upbringing in Austria, his body-building days, and the various struggles he faced while also showcasing superlative levels of ambition and determination. This also helps cover various details and developments primarily from the perspective of Arnold himself, alongside the people who were around him in these distinct phases. Here, the segregation makes perfect sense. Arnie's story has a little bit of everything - it is to noone's surprise that Netflix attempts a 3-episode mini-series based on his life.
