Efter Kirk Douglas død er det væltet ind med kondoleringer og citater. Læs Arnold Schwarzeneggers rørende citat her:
“Kirk Douglas was an icon. It’s hard to put into words what it meant to me to work with this legend who I grew up watching in Westerns in our little theater in Austria. He was larger than life to me – a real life hero.
When we finally met on the set of The Villain, he couldn’t have been any sweeter to me. I was a new actor and he was the perfect mentor. He was already in his 60s but he was in unbelievable shape, and he could still jump off a trampoline into his horse’s saddle. I’ll always remember his lessons and our workouts together (back then actors trained secretly, so he’d pull his dumbbells out of his hiding place and we would do curls together).
He was the perfect role model and my career wouldn’t have been the same without him. I will miss him dearly and my thoughts are with his family.”
Kirk Douglas var et ikon. Det er svært at sige, hvad det betød for mig at arbejde med denne legende, som jeg voksede op med at se i Westerns i vores lille teater i Østrig. Han var større end livet for mig – en ægte helt.
“Da vi endelig mødtes på sættet af Cactus Jack, kunne han ikke have været sødere for mig. Jeg var ny skuespiller, og han var den perfekte mentor. Han var allerede i 60’erne, men han var i utrolig form, og han kunne stadig springe ud af en trampolin ind i hestens sadel. Jeg vil altid huske hans lektioner og vores træning sammen (dengang trænede skuespillere hemmeligt, så han trak sine håndvægte ud af sit gemmested, og vi ville lave krøller sammen).
Han var den perfekte rollemodel, og min karriere ville ikke have været den samme uden ham. Jeg vil savne ham inderligt, og mine tanker er hos hans familie”.
