In 2015, Jamie appeared for an interview where she went along with the word association game. The interviewee also took Arnold Schwarzenegger’s name, in reply to which the actress disclosed an inside story. 

The shooting for True Lies ended in April and was available in theatres from July. Arnold shared the screen with Jamie, an American actress popular for her acting and activism. Their perfect alignment did wonders in the film industry.

The incident happened in June when filmmaker James Cameron put her on a conference call with Arnold. Initially, the contract was written in a way that Arnold’s name was above Jamie’s. Now James could sense the success of the film and called it “a domestic epic.” 

The movie was entirely focused on marriage, so the director wanted to place her name above the title alongside Arnold’s. To her surprise, Arnold Schwarzenegger, the lead actor who did multiple blockbusters, agreed with James.

“I’m telling you in the world of show business, ‘show off’ business is how I like to refer to it, that is such a coveted negotiable commodity, the credit,” she said. “Arnold Schwarzenegger said, ‘absolutely’ like that. That was a mensch move on his part.”

The True Lies

The movie was launched in 1994 and rocked the whole world with its storyline and visuals. This time it wasn’t entirely an action film, but rather fell under the spy genre. 

Arnold Schwarzenegger played the role of a secret agent who neglected his wife because of his tasks. But it didn’t take long for him to realize his mistake when he saw his wife having an affair.
