"No.

OJ was was seriously offered the role. Lance was offered but they wanted OJ. After a number of focus groups, they decided that neither OJ nor Lance were the right choice. It also helped that Arnold read the script and wanted the Terminator role bad."

"Ok What lance did really happened but if u say they were ridiculous enough to "seriously" offer O.J. the role but I have'nt ever heard that anywhere and neither has anyone I know than I beleive u. "

"I believe that Van Dam was considered for the role but declined after receiving a better offer!

BTW you misspelled his as is in the correct answer box."

"Not quite true he tried out for the lead but lost out to Arnold becuase he was considered to be a bigger threat to the Predator."

"According to an interview with director John McTiernan, the hole in the jungle appearance of the Predator in PREDATOR (1987) was played by Van Damme in a blue screen (actually red) suit.

Van Damme quit after two days, unhappy with being cast as an uncredited special effect. The alien was scrapped, redesigned, and was eventually played by 7'2 Kevin Peter Hall (deceased)."

"Sorry for the double post but I forgot to add who I thought would be a good Terminator.

I belive that eiter Jean-Claude Van Damme, Sylvester Stallone, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Tyler Mane or Vin Diesel would all be great choices!
In last action hero the film Sylvester Stallone looks good as the terminator in the video stores carboard cutout."
