HOW MUCH DID ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER EARN FOR TERMINATOR 2?

The Terminator film series is one of the most popular action movies in the
world. Arnold played the role of a cyborg assistant T-800. The character became
extremely popular and marked the peak of Arnold’s career. In the first
Terminator movie, Schwarzenegger

had a minimal role owing to which he earned $75000 for the film. However, as the
franchise became popular and as the budget increased, there was a massive
increase in Arnold’s pay.

The Conan the Barbarian actor was paid $21,429 for every word he spoke in the
second film. Furthermore, Arnold spoke a total of 700 words in the movie. An
estimate of Arnold’s total pay comes down to around 1 percent of the total
budget of the movie which was $100 million.



Well if that did not surprise you, the body-building legend pocketed around $5
million as a result of the film’s profits. However, Arnold’s massive pay cheque
seems justified. T-800 had a very interesting arc in the movie and
Schwarzenegger helped make the character one of the most popular roles in an
action film.
