chasmmi Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I sometimes find it interesting the number of older actors who hit megastardom in thier 50s or later.Examples that come to mind are Anthony Hopkins - Silence of the Lambs, Ian Mckellen - XMen/LOTR, Judy Dench - James Bond.Now obviously all of these actors have been around for decades before getting these parts and are great actors. But ask me to name a defining role of theirs off the top of my head that precede the above mentioned films... I got nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozymandias Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Michael Biehn said in an interview that Predator was what turned Arnold into a superstar, not Terminator or Conan. I agree with that. Conan introduced him to audiences, but it was kinda hokey. Terminator turned him into a star. Predator turned him into holy fuck awesome this motherfucker is here to stay.
