Arnold Schwarzenegger must be pumped up.
The Terminator and True Lies star, 77, is the proud dad to five grown kids, including White Lotus star Patrick Schwarzenegger and author Katherine Schwarzenegger—famously married to actor Chris Pratt. The former governor of California also shares two more children with ex-wife Maria Shriver. But it's his 27-year-old son Joseph Baena, whom the actor shares with former housekeeper Mildred Patricia Baena, that has fans doing a double a recent social media video posted by Baena, the actor and fitness model channels his famous dad's iconic weightlifting poses as he flexes and shows off the fruits of his labor in the gym. The resemblance is striking, and fans were quick to take notice.
One wrote, 'Arnold must be so proud that his legacy continued,' and another commented, 'Arnold all over again.'
Fans of Arnold's 1982 classic film Conan the Barbarian even suggested Baena as the perfect casting for an updated version of the film. One wrote, 'Need to see you as Conan for Halloween,' and another added, 'Little Arnold.'Fans noted they want to see the 27-year-old 'on the big screen.'
The people have spoken. Arnold, let's do this.
