The former California governor, who also is attached to a “Terminator” package, will play a horse trainer in the film for “Godfather” producer Al Ruddy and “Lincoln Lawyer” director Brad Furman.
Arnold Schwarzenegger has zeroed in on the film that will mark his return to the big screen: Cry Macho, a drama about a down-on-his-luck horse trainer who is hired to kidnap a 9-year-old boy.
Al Ruddy, an Oscar winner for both The Godfather and Million Dollar Baby,will produce, while Brad Furman, who helmed the recent The Lincoln Lawyer,has been tapped to direct, with filming set to begin in September.
“I guarantee that you’ll get another look at Arnold Schwarzenegger in this movie,” Ruddy said.
