MEETING ROBERT PATRICK Terminator 2, Peacemaker Season 2, John Cena, & Fatherhood

AUGGIE SMITH AKA THE T-1000 IN STUDIO!! With Peacemaker Season 2 Episode 3 now out, James Gunn Man Of Tomorrow Announced, Greg Alba sits down with legendary actor Robert Patrick (James Cameron’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day) for a candid, career-spanning conversation. - Visit https://huel.com/rejects to get 15% off your order We get into the many T2 restorations (theatrical vs 4K/3D re-release, what version he recommends, screening it at Cameron’s studio during Avatar work), theatrical culture today, and how Patrick’s craft evolved from the Roger Corman days through The Sopranos (David Chase), The X-Files (Agent John Doggett), Cop Land, Walk the Line (James Mangold), and beyond. He opens up about fatherhood, faith, and building flawed men with humanity (from Peacemaker’s Auggie Smith in S1 to the very different Auggie of Peacemaker Season 2), plus on-set stories of John Cena’s insane work ethic, ad-lib prep, and learning instruments. We also touch on early movie memories with his dad (2001: A Space Odyssey, Sean Connery’s James Bond), acting process (prep vs spontaneity, Benedict Cumberbatch’s Hamlet), working alongside Sylvester Stallone (Tulsa King), Harrison Ford, and Joaquin Phoenix, and why storytelling is the ultimate empathy machine. If you love Terminator 2, DC’s Peacemaker, prestige TV, and acting deep dives, this one’s for you. #Peacemaker #peacemakerseason2 #JamesGunn #JohnCena #RobertPatrick #Terminator2 #T2 #JamesCameron #TheSopranos #TheXFiles #JohnDoggett #TulsaKing #SylvesterStallone #JamesMangold #WalkTheLine #RogerCorman #Acting #Filmmaking #Podcast #Interview #React #Reaction #MovieReaction #FirstTimeWatching #Movie #Review #MovieReview Meeting Up W/ Sean Gunn (Maxwell Lord) https://youtu.be/-_w2tIiwzog Meeting James Gunn: https://youtu.be/eMeWKHc0cyY 0:00 - Terminator 2 (Best Version To Watch) 3:24 - Hollywood Changes: Post-COVID Movie Theater Trends 3:52 - Robert Patrick's 41-Year Acting Career Evolution 4:36 - Starting with Roger Corman: My Film School Experience 5:37 - Grateful for Acting Opportunities and Early Struggles 6:09 - Shift from Movies to Prestige TV Like The Sopranos 8:52 - Working with James Gandolfini and His Son's Success 9:23 - Playing Flawed Fathers in Peacemaker and Beyond 10:15 - Personal Movie Memories with Late Father 13:01 - Parents' Great Depression Influence and Risk-Averse Upbringing 14:03 - Moving to Hollywood: Faith, Purpose, and Divine Guidance 15:31 - Acting Process: Finding Character Purpose and Discovery 16:45 - HUEL 18:36 - Preparation Techniques and Reacting On Set 21:22 - Admiration for Actors Like Stallone, Ford, and Phoenix 22:52 - Witnessing John Cena's Evolution in Peacemaker 24:02 - John Cena's Work Ethic, Ad-Libs, and Self-Taught Skills 26:55 - Defining Masculinity in Tough Guy Roles 27:43 - Fatherhood Realities: No Handbook for Being a Dad 28:57 - Personal Influences: My Dad vs. Role Model Dads 30:15 - Moral Compass: Good Hearts, Right vs. Wrong, and Faith 31:28 - Auggie Smith in Peacemaker Season 2: Backstory and Changes 33:10 - Epic Monologue in Peacemaker S2: A Challenging Performance 34:09 - Terminator 2 Parodies and Walk Hard Connections 35:57 - Faith in Characters: Human Vulnerability, Good vs. Evil 36:41 - Storytelling's Power: Building Empathy Through Film Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Aparrel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Head Editor: https://www.instagram.com/praperhq/?hl=en Co-Editor: John Humphrey Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG Follow GREG On INSTAGRAM & TWITTER: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thegregalba Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8
