History
Schwarzenegger first used the line in The Terminator, after his cyborg assassin character is refused entry to the police station where his target, Sarah Connor is being housed. He tells the police clerk at the entrance desk window, "I'll be back", before returning moments later with his car, smashing it through the doors, and commencing to massacre dozens of police officers in the building. In an October 1, 2012 interview on Good Morning America, Schwarzenegger revealed that he had difficulty pronouncing the word I'll properly, and asked director James Cameron if it could be changed to "I will be back". Cameron refused, so Schwarzenegger worked to say the line as written as best he could. He would later say the line in numerous subsequent films throughout his career.
