During the T-800 and the T-1000's first tussle at the mall, you'll probably remember the moment where the T-800 is thrown through the window of a department store, at which point a startled photographer keeps snapping pictures.

Though you'd be forgiven for not knowing that this man is in fact the film's co-writer William Wisher Jr., if you're a huge fan of the original film, his face might look familiar.

Wisher, who also collaborated with Cameron on The Terminator, had a cameo in that movie as well, appearing briefly as the cop who gets attacked and carjacked by the T-800.

Some fans have speculated that the two men could even be the same character, and that the photographer's facial expression is actually one of terrified recognition. You decide.
