Very late last night I couldn’t sleep, so I turned the TV on and found the American classic Predator (1987). In addition to the killer acting and a logically flawless plot, I couldn’t help but notice the amount of political success that the stars of that movie have had. Both Jesse Ventura and Arnold Schwarzenegger were elected governor.
That gave me the bright idea that Carl Weathers was next. I was going to write this post endorsing Weathers for governor of the great state of New York… but it turns out someone already beat me to the punch. Someone named Carl Weathers!
Hilarious. Just hilarious.
Even before Predator, you DO know he was Apollo Creed in Rocky…right???
Interesting, though. Quite a political connection in that fine piece of Arnoldcinematography.
