MOVIE TRIVIA … EDWARD FURLONG

MOVIE TRIVIA …

EDWARD FURLONG

EDWARD FURLONG

He was discovered by casting director Mali Finn at the Boys Club of Pasadena, and won the part of "John Connor" in the 1991 film Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991).

He reprised his Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) character, "John Connor", for the theme park attraction T2-3D, a short film filmed in a new 3-D process that makes the film really appear to jump out at you.

9/25/01: Arrested by police in West Hollywood, CA, in two separate incidents: 1) for driving without a license 2) for DUI and causing a car wreck (just four hours after the first incident).

During the shooting of Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991), his voice changed and he had to loop all of his lines in quite a few scenes. He also grew quite a bit. At the beginning of shooting, he was a few inches smaller than his double and, at the end, he was a little bit taller than him. He even had to stand in a hole during the shooting of some scenes.

In 1992, he launched a successful music career in Japan and is still extremely popular with Japanese girls today. His debut song "Hold On Tight" even beat Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" to #1 on the Japanese charts.
