Kickinger, who played Arnold Schwarzenegger in the 2005 film "See Arnold Run", discussed his role in the McG-directed film with Clinton News Record. "There's a very strong scene in the film where John Connor for the first time meets the Terminator, and he doesn't know if he's a good guy or a bad guy," said Kickinger.

"It's Arnold's character in the first Terminator. That's basically my role, but 20 years before, so it establishes how the Terminator [came] about."
