Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Based on the 2002 Überlingen mid-air collision; the real air traffic controller was murdered by a grieving father who became a national hero in Russia.
Schwarzenegger took a massive pay cut and slept in his car on set to stay in character—a choice that makes the hollowed-out performance land harder.
