In a recent candid interview, Schwarzenegger shared his thoughts about the results of the movie. Back in 1993, the Last Action Hero gave a disappointing performance in box office numbers upon its release. However, the actor expressed his belief that the movie was unfairly judged and blamed the outcome on what he described as a “political attack.”
According to Schwarzenegger, the movie’s release coincided with his campaigning which gave it a political angle. Schwarzenegger was campaigning in support of former President George H.W. Bush, who eventually lost as Bill Clinton won the elections. “It was slaughtered before anybody saw it,” Schwarzenegger revealed. “It was literally a political attack because I was campaigning for Bush, but Clinton won.”, he told the Hollywood reporter.
Despite the negative reception and financial disappointment, Schwarzenegger maintains that “Last Action Hero” was an underrated film. While the Governator acknowledges that it may not have reached the level of greatness like his other movie, he believes it deserved more credit than it received. Schwarzenegger claims that people are now watching it and appreciating it. However, the legendary bodybuilder has been making headlines with his latest project as the Terminator returns to the silver screen.
