Arnold Schwarzenegger wants family movie with Patrick Schwarzenegger and Chris Pratt
Arnold Schwarzenegger wants family movie with Patrick Schwarzenegger and Chris Pratt The 77-year-old actor is open to the idea of a collaboration with his 31-year-old son and son-in-law Arnold Schwarzenegger is keen to make a movie with Patrick Schwarzenegger and Chris Pratt. The 77-year-old actor is open to the idea of a collaboration with his 31-year-old son and son-in-law - who married his daughter Katherine Schwarzenegger in 2019 - but insisted they wouldn't do so for the sake of it as the script would have to be good enough. He told E! News of the possibility: "It's one of those things that if there's a great script, then of course, we would do it. "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.' " The Fubar star called on filmmakers to make the project happen. He said: "You don't have to talk about it, just do it." Article continues below Arnold - who, as well as Katherine, 35, and Patrick, 31, also has Christina, 33, and Christopher, 27, with ex-wife Maria Shriver and Joseph Baena, 27, with Mildren Baena - is also open to the idea of following in his son's footsteps and starring in The White Lotus. Asked if he'd be interested in a role in the anthology series, he said: "Whenever I see something good, I am interested in it, so we will see." The former Governor of California is delighted to witness Patrick's success because his son has always been interested in acting. He said: "Patrick always had a love for show business. 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." Meanwhile, the veteran action star is excited about the new season of Fubar, even if he finds certain physical scenes "very, very tough" these days. He teased: "The second season is a lot, a lot of great, great action, and also really funny moments. "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 Arnold is proud of Patrick, he recently admitted he was shocked when his son stripped naked in The White Lotus. During a joint interview for Variety's 'Actors on Actors' series, he told his son: "I couldn't believe [it]. "I said to myself, 'I'm watching your show, and I'm watching your butt sticking out there.' And all of a sudden, I see the weenie. "What is going on here? This is crazy. "Then I said to myself, 'Well, Arnold, hello. You did the same thing in Conan and Terminator, so don't complain about it.' Article continues below "But it was a shock to me that you were following my footsteps so closely."

Harrison Ford once complimented his ‘Shrinking' co-star Jason Segel on his ‘great d–k'
It belongs in a museum! Harrison Ford once complimented Jason Segel on his 'great d–k' after watching the 45-year-old actor go full frontal in 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall.' Segel recalled the 'Indiana Jones' star's surprising words during Variety's 'Actors on Actors' series with Seth Rogen published on Thursday, June 5. 7 Harrison Ford once complimented Jason Segel's 'great d–k' after watching the younger actor go full frontal in 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall.' AFP via Getty Images 7 Segel recalled Ford's surprising words during a recent episode of Variety's 'Actors on Actors' series with Seth Rogen. Peggy Sirota for Variety He began by explaining how the producers of 'Shrinking,' Brett Goldstein and Bill Lawrence, convinced Ford, 82, to sign on to the popular Apple TV+ series. 'We got Harrison Ford because Harrison Ford is the kind of person you make an offer to so that for three days you can say, 'We've made an offer to Harrison Ford,' and then you'll pick the real guy,' Segel said on Thursday. 'He read it, and he didn't know anything about me,' the 'How I Met Your Mother' star continued. 'Brett Goldstein met with him, and they had a really nice meeting, and they sent him 'The End of the Tour' and 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall.'' 7 Segel began by telling Rogen how the producers of 'Shrinking' convinced Ford to sign on to the Apple TV+ show. Peggy Sirota for Variety 'Then,' he added, 'Bill Lawrence got a text that said, 'I'm in. And tell the kid, great d–k.'' Rogen, 43, couldn't get over the fact that Ford once complimented Segel's manhood. 'Even if he was out, that would be great,' the 'Studio' star joked. 'I would take that.' 7 Ford and Segel as the therapists Paul Rhoades and Jimmy Laird in Season 2 of 'Shrinking.' Apple TV+ The full-frontal scene in question occurs in the 2008 comedy when Segel's character, Peter Bretter, stands fully naked as his girlfriend, Sarah Marshall (Kristen Bell), breaks up with him. Segel previously opened up about the surprising scene in 2015 and revealed that he was the one who came up with the idea. 'I thought that was hilarious,' he told Vulture at the time. 'I was actually not very uncomfortable doing it. I really felt free.' 7 'I'm in,' Segel recalled Ford saying. 'And tell the kid, great d–k.' ©Apple TV/Courtesy Everett Collection 'You have to put it in the context that this was 2006, 2007, and this hadn't been done before, in my recollection,' Segel added, 'where the main guy was going to be naked in the first five minutes of the movie.' Even more surprising was Segel's admission that the full frontal idea was inspired by a similar incident that had actually happened to him in real life years before. 'She arrived at the house and I had decided that the way to really kick off this sex was that I was waiting on the couch totally naked, like posed,' he told Conan O'Brien during an episode of the comedian's podcast in 2023. 7 Ford and Segel seen at 'Shrinking' FYC Event at The Think Apple TV+ Emmy House on May 18, 2025, in Los Angeles Apple TV+ via Getty Images 'So she walked in and there I am laying,' he continued, 'and I said, 'I've got a surprise for you,' and then she said, 'We need to talk.'' One person who didn't enjoy Segel's nude scene was his mother, who was blindsided when she watched it at the movie premiere. 'She said, 'Why didn't you tell me?'' the recalled last year. 'I said, 'I thought it would be a funny joke.' She said, 'This is not a funny joke.'' 7 This wouldn't be the first time that the 'Indiana Jones' star complimented his 'Shrinking' co-star's manhood. Getty Images As for 'Shrinking,' the series stars Segel and Ford as therapists Jimmy Laird and Paul Rhoades, respectively. The show, which premiered in January 2023 and concluded its second season in December, follows Segel's character in the wake of his wife's death. It also follows Ford's character as he battles Parkinson's disease. 'There's no intention to make it into a joke,' Ford said of his character's startling diagnosis during an interview late last year. 'But there are people that absorb these kinds of experiences with grace and courage and a little bit of wisdom,' he added. 'And that is not to say that some people do not.'

George Clooney voices hope for America's future
Los Angeles, Apr 24 (UNI) Academy Award-winning actor George Clooney remains confident that the United States will weather its political storms, expressing optimism during candid conversation with Broadway legend Patti LuPone for Variety's 'Actors on Actors' series. Clooney, known as much for his activism as for his acting, offered a reassuring take on the country's political trajectory. Reflecting on the enduring presence of former President Donald Trump, Clooney characterised him 'It is funny because he is just a New York beast and we've all known him for 30 years when he was just a guy chasing women,' Clooney said. 'It's fine. We're going to get through it.' While Clooney's hopefulness permeated the conversation, LuPone expressed a far more sobering viewpoint, aligning herself with the segment of the public mired in political fatigue. 'I feel like we'll all be fine, we're going to get through it,' Clooney said. 'We do eventually find our better angels, we have every other time and I think we will again. I'm an optimist about all of that.' 'I'm so glad you are,' Lupone said after a heavy sigh. 'That gives me hope', according to a report by CNN. Clooney, who is currently starring in the Broadway production of 'Good Night and Good Luck,' added that he also thinks Democrats will win back the majority in the House of Representatives in the midterm election. A longtime Democrat, Clooney said he hopes new leadership emerges in the party. 'We have to find some people to represent us better who have a sense of humour. Who have a sense of purpose,' he said, adding that one person he believes in is Maryland Governor Wes Moore. 'I think he's going to a real force in the next election.' UNI XC SSP
