Schwarzenegger is an undercover operative married to Helen, played by Jamie Lee Curtis. The couple is swept up into a far-reaching plot during this action comedy film.

"End of Days" was an apocalpytic film that received equally dark reviews. It had a huge budget of around $100 million, but audiences bailed out this mess of a movie, which wound up making about $200 million at the box office.

Schwarzenegger made his film debut in "Hercules," in 1969. He was just 22 years old when he starred in this low-budget comedy.

The filmmakers credited Schwarzenegger as "Arnold Strong." It was probably for the best -- Schwarzenegger reportedly hated the movie and wished he hadn't been a part of it.

1988's "Twins" depicted Schwarzenegger and DeVito as twins who were separated at birth. In the film, Schwarzenegger's character sets off to find his long-lost brother, who turns out to be a dirtbag that lives in Los Angeles.

In "Total Recall," Schwarzenegger's blue-collar character realizes that he's a secret agent who must travel to Mars in order to understand exactly who he really is.

Schwarzenegger played the role of Douglas Quaid in "Total Recall." Directed by Paul Verhoeven, the movie also starred Sharon Stone and Michael Ironside.

He's been acting since the 60s, made himself into a Hollywood icon and political force, but Schwarzenegger has never been nominated for an Academy Award.

"Red Sonja" was based on the character of the same name from Marvel Comics. Brigitte Nielsen had the starring role; Schwarzenegger played Lord Kalidor, who eventually helps Sonja on her quest.

"Terminator 2" was a tremendous success for Schwarzenegger. It didn't win him an Oscar, but he did receive the Best Male Performance award at the MTV Movie Awards.

Mercenaries grab Milano and hold her hostage in "Commando." Schwarzenegger plays a retired special forces soldier who will do anything to get her back.

In spite of its R rating, the film was a hit, raking in nearly $60 million against its $10 million budget. Since its release in 1985, it has become a cult movie favorite.

In "The Terminator" Schwarzenegger plays a cyborg assassin sent back in time to kill the mother of a boy who would eventually rise up and lead a resistance fight against robotic overlords.

Schwarzenegger appeared in only one "Predator" movie -- the first one. This film not only got great reviews, but it made nearly $100 million at the box office.

"Red Sonja" was skewered by critics and audiences alike. Schwarzenegger said it was his worst film. Brigette Nielsen won a Golden Raspberry for Worst New Star for her part in this terrible movie.

"Terminator 2: Judgment Day" hit theaters in 1991. Its breakthrough special effects helped it win many awards and generated huge box office success.

The studio gambled big on "T2," which cost around $100 million to make. The payoff was enormous -- the movie made more than $500 million in box offices around the globe.

The action-packed movie was nominated for six different categories. It won four Oscars.

It didn't win for Best Cinematography. "Terminator 2" was unique in that as a sequel it was better than the original in almost every way.
