Michael Biehn Net Worth: Michael Biehn is an American actor and director who has a net worth of $8 million. Michael Biehn was born July 31, 1956 in Anniston, Alabama. He is best known for his roles in James Cameron’s science fiction action films The Terminator (as Kyle Reese), Aliens (as Cpl. Dwayne Hicks) and The Abyss (as Lt. Coffey). He also appeared in such films as Tombstone, The Rock and Planet Terror. On television, Biehn appeared in the cast of the Emmy Award-winning ’80s television series Hill Street Blues and the short-lived syndicated show Adventure Inc. Michael Biehn got his start in movies with a bit part in the film version of Grease in 1978. He appeared in two scenes, the most memorable being a scene in which John Travolta’s character, Danny, hits Biehn’s uncredited character in the stomach while playing basketball. In 1984’s The Terminator, he had arrived, but Biehn nearly lost out on the role because he pronounced his lines in a Southern accent that he had picked up while performing on stage in Cat On a Hot Tin Roof. It was not until his agent called, that producer Gale Anne Hurd and director James Cameron reconsidered him. The low-budget movie made a somewhat profitable run in theaters, but formed a huge fan base on cable television and home video, turning the unlikely hit into a career-maker for almost everyone involved. Despite his leading role, Biehn never actually shared any scenes with the film’s star Arnold Schwarzenegger. The most important relationship forged on set was one which would make Biehn’s career, with actor and his loyal director-turned-friend, James Cameron. Biehn went on to make his own film, The Victim, which he also produced, wrote, directed and starred in. The film was released in 2011.

To be perfectly honest with you, I was partying a lot in school. I didn't have any good study habits from high school because I just kind of got by on being a jock.

When I first moved out to Los Angeles I was thinking, you know, I wanted to be an actor but I didn't really know what acting was about. I thought if I could be a model, or even do commercials and stuff like that for the rest of my life, I'd be happy.

I think every director's different. Every director's got his own style. I mean, when I directed, I basically just screamed for eight hours a day, twelve hours a day.
