Exclusive Interview with Tom Arnold: Staff Fights & True Lies Blu-ray!

Earlier this month, we got to catch up with Tom Arnold, comedian, True Lies co-star and one of Arnold’s best friends. Read on for some good topics of MusclePharm, True Lies, Sabotage and which Schwarzenegger staff member would win in a fight. 

Tom admitted that there was a great script for True Lies 2 in 2001 by Jeff Easton but it ended at the Twin Towers and they couldn't make terrorism funny at that time. Still, he’d love to work with Arnold again.

“I can't believe Arnold and I haven't done another movie since I'm his best co-star ever and he's done like 18 movies with Sly: his nemesis!”

TheArnoldFans:It's the 20th Anniversary of True Lies. Did you film any commentaries for this upcoming True Lies Special Edition Blu-ray...and how good would you look as a blue alien in Cameron's Avatar 2?

“Yes, we all shot a documentary for it and I would look awesome in blue.” Tom is hoping Jim Cameron is listening.

Not too long ago, Tom Arnold introduced his Austrian friend to the crowd at Muscle Beach to launch the Arnold Series supplements. Since then the True Lies co-star has taken one of the Schwarzenegger products in order to loose weight and is much slimmer and more fit. He used Arnold's MusclePharm supplements to get the last 40 off.

TheArnoldFans: In addition is getting slimmer, thanks to the "Arnold Series" supplements and your strong will, would you also like to take some MusclePharm Arnold products to get big muscles / more muscular?

Tom Arnold: “Where would Arnold be without you guys? Obviously you work for MusclePharm so where's my offer? :) I need to firm my shit up seriously and will use the products to help but I still have to eat right and exercise or it doesn't matter.”

I know, I can’t blame Tom for accusing me as paid MusclePharm spokesmen. We too are wondering where our deal is - what with all the free promotion we give them. Where’s a sample shipment for TheArnoldFans?

Listening to Tom on the Howard Stern Show (Hey Now) in the past, I’ve heard Schwarzenegger’s friend talk a lot of trash (in good fun), about the Terminator’s staff the last two times he was sitting on the King of All Media’s couch. Maybe if I brought up The Oak’s staff again, I could get Tom to go off again. And again he did not disappoint. 

TheArnoldFans: Who'd win in a fight: Daniel, Dieter or Greg?

Tom Arnold: (Laughs) “That's a tough one. Depend on who has Arnold's balls in their mouth at the time. Dieter has seniority and Greg is thicker but Daniel is about to marry this super ***** chick (at least she was at Arnold's Christmas party…smoking hot too which is always hard to handle - especially for a nerd). I don't know. I love all of those guys and they sure take good care of my friend. They don't seem like fighters really but I could see them bl**ing each other. That would warm my heart. Peace and Love.”

Not too long ago, on The Greg Fitzsimmons Show, I got to speak with Tom about the possibility of the True Lies TV series. Earlier I spoke with both Eliza Dushku and James Cameron and they offered up some exclusive comments regarding their involvement with the series. Dushku told us she'd be interested in speaking with Cameron's people and the "king of the world" director, Cameron himself, told us that he was involved with reading the script and his name would be attached to the series.

TheArnoldFans: Hi Tom, I'm a big TRUE LIES fan. I'm with TheArnoldFans.com and I spoke with James Cameron who is producing a True Lies TV series. He's not doing a film sequel but last I heard is working on this TV series. Have you heard anything about it and would you be interested in starring in it?

Tom Arnold told me he did speak with Cameron about it last year and met with several people but the network turned "True Lies: the Series" down. 

I don’t think Tom Arnold will have any big roles in the next Terminator or in The Legend of Conan but we do hope they team up soon after. I’m all for the two Arnolds in Avatar! Tom wishes his friend the best and feels The Oak’s next film could be a ballsy one.

“We should really figure out something to do together. His movie Sabotage (David Ayers directed) is going to be a huge hit this spring and I want to ride his coat tails."
