WHAT MOTIVATES A T-850 TO WORK OUT? New Mostow interview: Arnold nude! Reported By: LA Daily News Sunday, January 20, 2003 Los Angeles Daily News spoke with "T3" director Jonathan Mostow about living up to Cameron's Terminator, what motivates Arnold and more! Did the Mr. Universe of the movies mind getting beaten up like a girl? "Arnold thought it was a great idea,' Mostow says with a chuckle. "He knew, better than anybody, that watching this beautiful woman kick his a-- would be incredibly entertaining for the audience.' The Austrian Oak was 54 when shooting began last spring and was just four months recovered from breaking six ribs in a motorcycle accident, so there was a bit of concern about what shape he'd be in. "The physicality of this character goes hand in hand with who he is, so that was certainly one of the first thoughts that crossed my mind,' the director says. "But the first time I met Arnold, they were put to rest; he looked fantastic, and that was before he was in a big workout regimen. The Terminator arrives naked, and Arnold said to me, 'There's no greater motivator for working out than knowing you're going to be naked in a movie.' Mostow promises great visual splendors beyond that. But once again, he's competing with the second Cameron model. "What was achieved in 'T2' would still be state of the art today,' he accurately notes. "It's hard to sort of go to the moon twice. But we have a nice trip to the moon -- let's put it that way.'
