Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis reunited on stage at Amazon’s upfront presentation in a moment that is sure to delight action movie fans. It’s been more than 30 years since the two actors starred in James Cameron’s 1994 box office blockbuster True Lies, and the event gave them both a chance to reminisce about working together as husband-and-wife duo Harry and Helen Tasker in the critically acclaimed feature, which centered on an international espionage plot involving the outwardly ordinary married couple.
As reported by Deadline, Schwarzenegger made an appearance at Amazon’s 2025 upfront presentation at New York’s Beacon Theatre to talk about his starring turn as Santa Claus in the Christmas-themed action-comedy The Man with the Bag, which is expected to hit Prime Video this December. However, after a short while, his former True Lies co-star Curtis showed up to escort him off the stage, but not before humoring the crowd by talking about their collaboration on the beloved movie, which opened in theaters in 1994. “Thirty years ago, we were together, and now here we are, talking ad strategy,” Curtis joked, though she also acknowledged that, unlike in the film, “we don’t need to go undercover to save the day.”

True Lies remains an underrated movie amid other blockbusters made by James Cameron, like Titanic and Avatar, despite being a great movie.
Curtis went on to share an anecdote that earned huge applause from the audience, as she recalled a conversation she had with Schwarzenegger and Cameron about the marketing campaign for True Lies. She revealed that the director called her up after proposing to Schwarzenegger that her name appear alongside his in the promotional material and opening credits “because it’s a movie about a marriage” and he felt it was “appropriate,” even though it wasn’t in the contract, to which Curtis’ co-star, “who clearly did not have to say yes, said yes.”
