Although Schwarzenegger initially gained fame as an action star, he later showcased his comedic side as well in films likeTwins(1988),Kindergarten Cop(1990), andJunior(1994). His ability to seamlessly transition between these two genres made him quite special. He also managed to showcase he was more than his muscles.
4) Schwarzenegger’s determination
Since the age of 15, Schwarzenegger has been determined to follow his passion. The actor’s idol, Reg Park, inspired him to lift weights. The actor had big dreams about winning the Mr. Olympia title, which he later won, not just once, but seven times. He continued to showcase this determination even while acting.
5) Schwarzenegger’s distinctive accent
During his early days in Hollywood, Schwarzenegger was well-known for his distinctive thick Austrian accent.
