In response to this, the actor stated that he wanted everyone to look at him like he is a robot. The 75-year-old actor stated,
“Not So much for my sake because I can disconnect completely and just be the robot but I was worried about them that if they get connected to me and they start looking at me they would not look at me with the same threat and fear. I wanted to come into the room and I wanted to have that impact.”
The host of the show Stern said that the actor wanted to create an intimidating impact on the people around him. Schwarzenegger also added that this would bring a certain facial reaction and it helps from an acting point of view.

During an interview, the actor spoke about his plans for the sci-fi and action film series. While talking about coming back into his robotic character the actor said,
“The franchise is not done. I’m done. I got the message loud and clear that the world wants to move on with a different theme when it comes to ‘The Terminator.”

“Someone has to come up with a great idea. Terminator’ was largely responsible for my success, so I always would look at it very fondly. The first three movies were great. Number four Salvation I was not in because I was governor. Then five Genisys and six Dark Fate didn’t close the deal as far as I’m concerned. We knew that ahead of time because they were just not well written.”
