Arnold Schwarzenegger Shares One Condition for Working With Chris Pratt and Son Patrick Schwarzenegger

E! News·2025-06-13 10:02

Arnold Schwarzenegger isn't terminating the idea of working with his family. 

The Terminator actor shared that he would be willing to star in a movie alongside his and ex Maria Shriver's son Patrick Schwarzenegger and their son-in-law Chris Pratt—who married their daughter Katherine Schwarzenegger, 35, in 2019—under one important condition.  

"It's one of those things that if there's a great script, then of course, we would do it," Arnold exclusively told E! News correspondent Will Marfuggi at the Fubar season two premiere with Netflix Tudum June 12. "But you can't just make up this stuff. You can't just say, 'OK, let's just put the three together in a movie and not have a great script.'" 

Noting that those parameters should be a "given," the 77-year-old—who also shares daughter Christina Schwarzenegger, 33, and son Christopher Schwarzenegger, 27, with Maria, as well as son Joseph Baena, 27, with Mildred Baena—called on filmmakers to make it happen.

As he put it, "You don't have to talk about it, just do it." (For more from Arnold, tune into E! News tonight, June 12, at 11 p.m.)

And Arnold isn't only leaving the door open to work with Patrick, 31, on a new project: He also hasn't shut down the idea of following in his son's footsteps by appearing on The White Lotus, which Patrick starred on as Saxon Ratcliff in its third season.

"Whenever I see something good, I am interested in it," Arnold shared, "so we will see."  

But whether he's sharing the screen with Patrick or watching him from afar, the former bodybuilder is just happy to see the 31-year-old fulfill his longtime dream. 

"Patrick always had a love for show business," Arnold said. "He has spent a lot of time on the set with me when he was a kid. He was doing his homework in my movie trailer, he was watching me shooting on stage. I think he got the desire right then and there."

And in the meantime, he's proud of the hard work he's put into the forthcoming season of Fubar, an action comedy series that follows a CIA operative as he's thrust out of retirement and back onto the field for one last job. 

"The second season is a lot, a lot of great, great action," Arnold said of the new installment, which premieres on Netflix June 12, "and also really funny moments." 

He added, "The actual sequences are very, very tough to do, especially when you do night shoots and all that. But it's a lot of fun."

While you wait to watch Fubar season two, read on for more shows hitting the screen this year.
