Michael Biehn's Quotes

  • I'd rather have a small part in a good film with good people than play the lead in something I don't really care for.
  • [on not spending much time with Arnold Schwarzenegger on The Terminator (1984)] I saw him around, you know. He was doing his thing, I was doing my thing, but I didn't really get to talk to him because Linda and I spend the entire film running away from Arnold.
  • [on the chase scenes in The Terminator (1984)] Looking back on it, I realize we were really going at some high speeds those nights. One night, my adrenaline was running so high I actually tore the steering wheel off, and I just looked over at Linda [Hamilton] and said "Here, you drive!".
  • I do a lot of research on most of my roles and before I start a role when I read a script I know all of the beats in the script and I know exactly how to do it because I've read about such a character or experienced similar things myself or had the same sort of relationship with people. So, when I go in to act it it's mostly technique. I'm not an actor who just lets things happen in front of the camera.
  • I know why they think of me as intense. It's because on the set, I'm very concentrated. I don't just walk on and do my thing and walk off. I'm very intense when I'm working. I know exactly what I'm doing before I get in there. [1990 interview]

Interesting Facts about Michael Biehn

  1. Has played a Navy SEAL three times: The Abyss (1989), Navy Seals (1990) and The Rock (1996).
  2. In James Cameron's The Terminator (1984), he gets bitten on the hand by another character. He has suffered the same on-screen injury in every James Cameron film he has been in: in The Terminator (1984) he is bitten by Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) in Aliens (1986) Rebecca "Newt" Jorden (Carrie Henn) does the same thing, and in The Abyss (1989) Virgil "Bud" Brigman (Ed Harris) does the honors. This was alluding to him being bitten on the hand in James Cameron's version of Spider-Man.
  3. Replaced actor James Remar as Corporal Dwayne Hicks in Aliens (1986).
  4. He almost did not get the role of Kyle Reese in The Terminator (1984) because at his first audition he spoke in a Southern accent. He had just come another audition for a stage production of "Cat On a Hot Tin Roof" and had not been able to shake the accent, and the producers did not want the character Kyle Reese to seem regionalized. After calling and talking with Biehn's agent, they gave him another audition and he got the role.
  5. Attended the University of Arizona on a drama scholarship. He left school two years early to pursue his career in Hollywood.
  6. Has two children with Carlene Olson: twin boys, Devon and Taylor Biehn (born 1984).
  7. Has two sons with ex-wife Gina Marsh: Caelan Biehn and Alexander Biehn.
  8. Said that he did not get to interact with Arnold Schwarzenegger very much while filming The Terminator (1984). Ironically, fans often ask him what it was like to work with Arnold.
  9. James Cameron considered using him as the T-1000 in Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991), which would have been a reversal of the roles Biehn previously had with Arnold Schwarzenegger in the original. However, Cameron eventually decided against the idea on the basis that it would have been too confusing for the audience.
  10. Filmed a cameo in Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) in which Sarah Connor (Linda Hamilton) fantasizes a meeting with him, but the scene was cut from the theatrical release; it later became available in the director's edition. Biehn said in an interview that he was not surprised that the scene was cut, seeing as how it had little to do with the film's overall story.
  11. Has appeared in five films with Bill Paxton: The Lords of Discipline (1983), The Terminator (1984), Aliens (1986), Navy Seals (1990) and Tombstone (1993). They are also good friends.
  12. Surname pronounced "Bean".
  13. Is a member of the Sigma Nu Fraternity at the University of Arizona.
  14. Has appeared in two films with Ed Harris, in both of which he played a Navy SEAL: The Abyss (1989) and The Rock (1996).
  15. A shot of him as Kyle Reese in the movie The Terminator (1984) was reproduced as the cover-art of the video game Metal Gear (1987). Biehn was chosen as a model as he was then at the peak of his fame, and would be the ideal actor to play Metal Gear's protagonist Solid Snake had Metal Gear been an action movie.
  16. The studio pushed hard for an Academy Award nomination for Biehn as Best Supporting Actor in The Abyss (1989) - an award he ultimately did not win or even got nominated for.
  17. Cites not being asked to reprise his role as Corporal Dwayne Hicks for AlienΒ³ (1992) as one of the biggest disappointments of his career.
  18. Partner is actress Jennifer Blanc-Biehn.
  19. For his role on Tombstone (1993), he was trained by renowned Hollywood Gun Coach Thell Reed, who has also trained such actors as: Kurt Russell, Val Kilmer, Bill Paxton, Sam Elliot, Russell Crowe, Brad Pitt, Girard Swan and Leonardo DiCaprio.
  20. Friends with Brian Austin Green and Megan Fox.
