    Arnold Schwarzenegger

    NAME: Arnold Schwarzenegger


    BIRTH DATE: July 30, 1947 (Age: 67)
    PLACE OF BIRTH: Graz, Austria

    Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger was born on July 30, 1947, in Graz, Austria and
    turned to bodybuilding and Hercules films to evade his father Gustavs, a
    former member of the Nazi Party, physical abuse. Primarily made in the U.S.,
    his film obsession quickly transformed into an American dream.

    With the help of Joe Weider, the face behind the International Federation of
    Body Building, in 1968, Arnold immigrated to the U.S. and took over the less
    popular sport of bodybuilding with six Mr. Olympia and five Mr. Universe
    titles. His immediate success, overly confident and outgoing personality was
    later put on display in the documentary Pumping Iron (1977), which ultimately
    put the sport back into spotlight.
    After landing his first starring role in both Conan the Barbarian (1982) and
    Conan the Destroyer (1984), Arnold grab the attention of moviegoers as a
    killing machine in The Terminator (1984) and Terminator 2: Judgment Day
    (1991).

    Arnold continued his rein as a muscle-bound, action star with memorable


    starring roles in Predator (1987), The Running Man (1987) and Total Recall
    (1990) before showing off his comedic, softer side in Twins (1988) opposite
    Danny DeVito, Kindergarten Cop (1990) and Jingle All the Way (1996).

    Also around the time, Arnold returned to the action genre in True Lies (1994)
    opposite Jamie Lee Curtis followed by Eraser (1996), Batman & Robin (1997),
    The 6th Day (2000), Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003).

    After tying the knot with Maria Owings Shriver, Arnold shocked many when he
    decided to enter the Californias governors race in 2003, which he went on to
    win. His famous line pointed at Democrats, If they dont have the guts, I call
    them girlie-men, officially made him Californias most creative governor and
    helped him secure his spot for re-election in 2006.

    In part of failing to improve the states economical state, Arnold left office and
    later announced he was divorcing Maria due to his illegitimate child with one of
    the household staff in 2011.

    Arnold also returned to the big screen in The Expendables (2010) and The
    Expendables 2 (2012).

    The Governators most recent projects include The Last Stand (2013), Escape
    Plan (2013) with Sylvester Stallone, Sabotage (2014), The Expendables 3
    (2014), Terminator 5 (2015), the comedy Triplets (unknown release date)
    opposite Danny DeVito, and The Legend of Conan (unknown).
