Terminator 3 (2003) and Crocodile Dundee (1986)
In the latest episode of Film Stories with Simon Brew, Simon looks at two films with independent backgrounds!
Terminator 3 led to a delay in Arnold Schwarzenegger's political ambitions, and just getting the film made involved rights problems, and getting James Cameron's blessing.
Paul Hogan, meanwhile, was already a millionaire when he penned Crocodile Dundee - but he still needed over 1000 more investors. Plus, the US cut would end up nearly ten minutes shorter!
