Michael Biehn reprised his most famous role, Kyle Reese, from The Terminator. Okay, really it’s only for 30 seconds on Twitter but it’s important.
Aaron Couch of The Hollywood Reporter posted the video and it’s amazing that Biehn’s monologue is almost verbatim from The Terminator when he tells Sarah Connor the stakes of the situation. He just replaces Terminator with coronavirus. It’s actually kind of surreal and sobering to hear him say words from a movie that can so easily be placed into real-life context.
We all need to do our part in spreading the word that the best thing to do to combat the coronavirus pandemic is to stay in our homes. And like Ryan Reynolds recently said on Instagram, it is in our best interests to listen to celebrities because they know what they’re talking about.

And some of them are doing their part in reminding us about self-quarantining and social distancing and they’re incorporating some of their characters into home-made PSAs. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost did one parodying Shaun of the Dead and now we have another.
Biehn made a name for himself in the ‘80s working with James Cameron. Besides The Terminator, he also appears in Aliens and The Abyss. After memorable roles in Tombstone and The Rock, his career kind of fizzled out by the mid ‘90s.
He was nearly cast as the villain in Cameron’s Avatar, but we will be seeing him soon (Hopefully) in the new season of The Mandalorian. All we know about his role is that he plays a bounty hunter from Din Djarin’s past.
But for now, stay inside and watch a few Biehn movies. Is The Terminator your favorite? What do you think about his appearance in the second season of The Mandalorian? Leave a comment below.
