Most might imagine that Pumping Iron exists solely because of Arnold Schwarzenegger. But the first kernel of inspiration for the movie actually sprung up at a small bodybuilding show in Holyoke, Mass. (1) In 1972, the town hosted a bodybuilding contest, and Sports Illustratedhired Butler to take photographs of the event for a feature article writte...
Many fans of the film might not know that Pumping Iron started out as a book written by Gaines with photographs by Butler. (2) And it doesn’t focus solely on Schwarzenegger — heck, the “Austrian Oak” didn’t even make the cover. The cover of the first edition actually went to the late Ed Corney, a bodybuilder with his own niche, in-sport popularity....
Both Pumping Iron and Saturday Night Fever hit theaters in 1977 and quickly became pop-culture sensations. While they appear to be on opposite ends of the cinematic spectrum, Butler claimed that Pumping Iron’s supporting cast member, Lou Ferrigno, inspired the characterization of John Travolta’s fictional family life in Fever. (1) [Read: How to Inc...
In a movie full of memorable scenes, Schwarzenegger giving pre-contest advice to a young competitor stands out from the pack. The scene takes place right in the middle of Gold’s Gymas the blonde newbie bodybuilder receives criticism from the Austrian Oak. The young man’s name is Wes Brown, but you’d never know that, as he didn’t even get a credit i...
Both Schwarzenegger and Butler have long since gone on the record revealing many moments in Pumping Ironwere completely fictionalized in order to tell a more compelling story. It’s why the movie is labeled a docudrama rather than a documentary. One such story involved Schwarzenegger skipping his father’s funeral because he didn’t want to miss out o...
Another standout moment in Pumping Iron is the subplot of bodybuilder Ken Waller stealing rival Mike Katz’s T-shirt in order to psyche him out on the day of the competition. Butler and Schwarzenegger have long since admitted that the incident was completely fabricated, too. (1)(8) Yes, Mike Katz did really lose his shirt temporarily, and yes, he di...
Countless hours of footage filmed for Pumping Ironhad to be cut to meet the movie’s 90-minute run time. But that doesn’t mean the moments that were cut were duds. In fact, a few gems ultimately fell victim to the editing process during post-production. One such piece came when Lou Ferrignoapparently expressed that his goal was to “become the Incred...
When Butler wanted to get Pumping Iron funded in the early ‘70s, Schwarzenegger was far from a big-screen star. Until that point, his most high-profile movie was 1969’s Hercules in New York, a notorious indie flop that seemed to signal the end of Schwarzenegger’s nascent movie career. New York bombed so hard that one potential financier denied Butl...
Pumping Iron began as a humble two-man project, born out of shared curiosity about a niche subculture. In the end, despite a shoestring budget and piles of skepticism, the docudrama helped introduce bodybuildingto mainstream popular culture and was a key factor in Arnold Schwarzenegger becoming one of the biggest movie stars of the 1980s and ’90s. ...

The resultant film, Raw Iron, also served to document the making of Pumping Iron, exploring the difficulties that Butler had in producing the film and the narrative choices he made. Raw Iron also debunked a lot of the dramatics that played out in Pumping Iron , such as a cold comment by Schwarzenegger about why he did not return to ...
