Patrick Schwarzenegger Aims to Star in Action Movie with Dad Arnold Schwarzenegger!

by

Having just wrapped up Season 3 of The White Lotus last Sunday, it’s clear that one of its rising stars, Patrick Schwarzenegger, is already dreaming about his future endeavors following the series. With his captivating portrayal of Saxon Ratliff in this HBO drama, I imagine he’s still basking in the success of what might be one of his finest performances yet. But the son of a Schwarzenegger carries ambitious plans – he yearns to collaborate with his father, Arnold, on an action-packed film project.

The actor discussed his character, Saxon, a wealthy yet douchey Chad, with The Hollywood Reporter. During this role, he experiences a reality check while vacationing with his family in Thailand. Despite portraying various characters that significantly differ from those his father played during his youth, the actor acknowledges that, under the glare of Hollywood, he continues to live under his father’s shadow – Arnold Schwarzenegger. However, he expresses that Arnold is now experiencing what Patrick felt as a child when it came to his success: “I’ve always found his success strange. It must be strange for him too. We went to the gym together yesterday, and people approached him, talking about my show.

There’s a striking similarity between Schwarzenegger and his father, yet luckily for us, he has carved out a unique path with notable roles in shows such as “The Staircase” and “Gen V”, and films like “Daniel Isn’t Real”. Despite not being the action hero his father was at an early age, Schwarzenegger is optimistic that an action movie is on the horizon for him. He even hints that it might feature a collaboration with his father, the iconic T-800 from the “Terminator” series.

My ambition is clear: I aspire to star in action movies. This has been a dream of mine for quite some time, and now that I have gained some experience and confidence, I believe I am ready to take on such roles. I’ve discussed this opportunity with my father, and he knows that if it aligns well with my career goals, I would be eager to accept the challenge.

What’s Next for Patrick Schwarzenegger After ‘The White Lotus’ Season 3?

It hasn’t been decided yet if Saxon might reappear in a potential new season of The White Lotus, or any character from Season 3, for that matter. The charismatic and promising Ratliff is probably still reeling from his actions with his brother, but further troubles are on the horizon for him. It’s likely he will have to confront legal issues, much like his father did.

Arnold Schwarzenegger recently proposed an intriguing concept for a future season of Mike White’s show featuring wealthy vacationers – he suggested grouping similar types together, such as all the arrogant individuals or all the hotel staff. In a laid-back manner, Schwarzenegger expressed his readiness and patience regarding this prospective project. However, he also mentioned that his upcoming role will be the most demanding one he’s encountered yet.

Though I’ve been kept quite occupied, I’m choosing to exercise patience as I search for the perfect opportunity. You see, there’s a project I’m working on with an admired director, someone whose work has inspired me throughout my career. I’m excited about this collaboration, and I eagerly anticipate its potential fruition later this year. If it comes to pass, it will undoubtedly be the most demanding and enriching experience of my life, both personally and professionally.
