Arnold Schwarzenegger revealed that he wanted to change his most famous line from the Terminator movies.
The actor turned politician wanted to alter the line “I’ll be back” which has become his catchphrase.
According to Entertainmentwise, Arnold had an argument with Terminator director James Cameron on the set of the 1984 film because he wanted to say something else.
"I remember when we did Terminator - 'I'll be back'. I had no idea it was going to be an important line. In fact I had an argument with Jim Cameron.

"I said 'I will be back' and he said 'No. I wrote it. I'll be back' and I said, 'I don't like how the l sounds, it sounds a little soft'. Maybe it's more machine-like if I say I will be back'. He says 'No. I wrote it. I'll be back. Do me a favour and say it'.
"Sure enough when the movie came out, people would go, 'Say the line, say the line' and I'd say it and they'd go no say it like you do in the movie. I realised that line was a big line."
The Austrian took a break from acting when he was elected the governor of California in 2003 but will make his movie comeback in The Expendables 2.
"I think one-liners are very important and sometimes when you make the movie you don't realise it's going to be a great line.
"And sometimes you do know, like in Commando when I hold that guy by his feet and say 'I lied' and drop him. I knew it'd be a funny line," he said.
The actor split with his wife Maria Shriver last year.
