Arnold Schwarzenegger's Look-A-Like Son Joseph Re-Enacts Iconic Terminator Scene

Ben Arnold

He’s got the clothes, the boots and the motorcycle… but hang about, that’s not Arnie?

Nope, it’s his doppelgänger son Joseph Baena quite literally following in his father’s footsteps, recreating the famous ‘bad to the bone’ scene from 'Terminator 2: Judgement Day’.

– New Matthew McConaughey movie earns just $2730
– Mel Gibson Plans Passion Of The Christ Sequel
– Tom Hughes For James Bond?

And frankly, it’s pretty spooky how much of a chip off the old block he is, despite that lack of dialogue delivered in a monotone Austrian accent.

Baena is the love child Schwarzenegger had with his housekeeper Mildred Baena, who had worked for the Schwarzeneggers for 20 years.

The discovery of the infidelity was what led to the split between Schwarzenegger and his wife, Maria Shriver, part of the Kennedy family.

It was years before Arnold found out that he had fathered a son with Mildred, telling the '60 Minutes’ programme that is was only when the boy 'started looking like me, that’s when I kind of got it. I put things together’.

He told Howard Stern: “He’s terrific and he totally understands the situation. So, it all has worked out… It’s a very tough situation for him. It’s a very tough situation for my kids. Very tough situation for my family. It was tough for everybody. But it has happened and now we have to figure it out, right?”

Joseph, who’s nearly 19, appears to have the strong and silent stuff nailed, this short having been directed by Ben Hess for entry into a short film competition.

And judging by the easy manner in which he snatched that shotgun, a future as an action star clearly beckons.

  • Europe's STOXX 600 flat in volatile trading; real estate weighs

    (Reuters) -Europe's main stock index closed flat after a volatile session on Wednesday as investors remained on edge over geopolitical tensions between Ukraine and Russia which continued to cast a shadow over the markets. Ukraine fired a volley of British Storm Shadow cruise missiles into Russia on Wednesday, a day after it fired U.S. ATACMS missiles upon approval to do so from the outgoing administration of U.S. President Joe Biden. Russia lowered its threshold for a nuclear strike, and Reuters reported Russian President Vladimir Putin's openness to discuss a Ukraine ceasefire deal with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, provided it rules out major territorial concessions and that Kyiv abandons plans to join NATO.

  • Trump picks former acting AG Matthew Whitaker as nominee for NATO ambassador

    President-elect Donald Trump chose lawyer Matthew Whitaker on Wednesday to be U.S. ambassador to NATO, selecting a loyalist with little foreign policy experience for what may be one of the highest-profile ambassadorships during Trump's second administration. U.S. relations with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization were strained during Trump's first term, as the Republican president criticized NATO and accused European members of spending too little on defense. On the campaign trail this year, Trump showed little sign of softening his posture, saying at one event in February that he would encourage Russia to invade NATO countries that had not spent sufficient funds to defend themselves.
