Arnold Schwarzenegger reveals movie that earned him ‘well above' $40m — and it's not Terminator

Arnold Schwarzenegger has revealed which film made him the most amount of money — and surprisingly, it wasn't his best-known movie, Terminator. The former Republican Governor of California, 77, whose acting career has spanned more than five decades, was asked which past project had earned him the biggest paycheck during an appearance on Monday's episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen. 'It was Twins because we had gotten no money, no salary,' he said, 'but we got ownership, and a piece of the backend.' Schwarzenegger starred inTwins alongside Danny DeVito. Released in 1988, the comedy-action film grossed over $216.6 million at the worldwide box office. While the Total Recall actor refrained from giving the exact amount he took home he confirmed that it was well above $40 million. 'It was more than any movie I've ever made,' he disclosed. 'Let's just put it that way.' Directed by Ivan Reitman, the movie was about a pair of genetically engineered twins, separated at birth. After their birth mother is falsely told they are dead, Schwarzenegger's Julius learns the truth about his family and sets out to find them. Asked if he retained ownership of Twins 2, Schwarzenegger corrected Cohen, telling him that they never made a sequel. In 2012, reports broke about a long-awaited sequel titled Triplets; however, it never got made because Reitman died 'just before we wanted to start shooting it,' Schwarzenegger explained. Reitman, also known for helming several Ghostbusters movies, died from natural causes in 2022. He was 75. Schwarzenegger revealed that had the movie come to fruition, Eddie Murphy would've starred as his and DeVito's triplet. 'Aw that would've been great!' Cohen exclaimed. BeforeTwins, the Austrian actor had primarily starred in action movies, including The Terminator (1984), Commando (1985), Predator (1987), and the Stephen King adaptation of The Running Man (1987). Twins marked the Schwarzenegger's first comedic role. He's since gone on to lead other comedies such as Kindergarten Cop (1990), Last Action Hero (1993), and Jingle All the Way (1996). Schwarzenegger currently leads Netflix's action series, FUBAR, which premiered its second season earlier this month. The show, which also features Monica Barbaro, Travis Van Winkle, and Aparna Brielle, is about a CIA operative (Schwarzenegger), who is forced to return to the field for one last assignment after discovering a family secret.

'She's a wonderful human being': Arnold Schwarzenegger praises son Patrick's ex-girlfriend Miley Cyrus

Arnold Schwarzenegger has fond memories of his son Patrick Schwarzenegger's ex-girlfriend Miley Cyrus. The White Lotus actor dated the Easy Lover hitmaker, 32, between 2014 and 2015 before finding love with his fiancee Abby Champion and Arnie has revealed that the pop star was "loved" by all of the family. Quizzed on the best thing about Patrick dating Miley, the Terminator actor told Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen: "The best was that she's a wonderful, wonderful girl and human being. Very, very talented. She came up to Sun Valley when we were skiing up there and she was just such a wonderful houseguest and everything like that. "We all just loved her." Schwarzenegger insists that there were no downsides to Patrick, 31, dating such a high-profile star. The 77-year-old actor said: "She was just a really good, good person and fun to hang out with." Arnie continued: "I'm sorry it didn't work out. But Patrick, in the meantime, found another girl that he got engaged with and he's getting married to in September." Patrick played the role of Saxon Ratliff in the third season of the acclaimed TV series The White Lotus and Arnie revealed his shock at seeing his son strip nude for a scene in the HBO show. Speaking in a joint interview for Variety's Actors on Actors series, the True Lies star said: "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." However, the movie legend soon reminded himself that he had appeared in precious little clothing for some of his most memorable roles. Arnie said: "Then I said to myself, 'Well, Arnold, hello. You did the same thing in Conan and Terminator, so don't complain about it.' "But it was a shock to me that you were following my footsteps so closely." Patrick previously admitted that he was frustrated that some assumed that he had landed a part in The White Lotus because of his famous father. He told The Sunday Times newspaper: "I know there are people who'll say I only got this role because of who my dad is. "They're not seeing that I've had 10 years of acting classes, put on (high) school plays every week, worked on my characters for hours on end or the hundreds of rejected auditions I've been on."

Anthony Ramos Calls Out Madonna's Actions During Hamilton

Don't ask Madonna what happens in the stage show Hamilton. In a new interview, original cast member Anthony Ramos appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, where he was asked who the most "terrifying celebrity" in the audience was during his run as John Laurens in Hamilton. Anthony cited a 2015 incident in response. 'The most terrifying was Madonna with her iPad in her face. She was like this the whole time,' Anthony said, mimicking looking down at a screen. He added, 'I was like, 'Damn, shorty. If you're not enjoying it that much, you know the door is right there. You don't have to stay here.'' The moment occurred during the show's Off-Broadway run at The Public Theater. Interestingly, at the time Lin-Manuel Miranda tweeted-and-deleted, "Tonight was the first time I asked stage management NOT to allow a celebrity (who was texting all through Act 2) backstage #noselfieforyou." A rep for Madonna subsequently denied the speculation. However, Jonathan Groff was later asked if he was disappointed that Madonna wasn't allowed backstage, to which he said, "No. Because that bitch was on her phone. You couldn't miss it from the stage. It was a black void of the audience in front of us and her face there perfectly lit by the light of her iPhone through three-quarters of the show." There we have it: The rehashing of a decade-old Broadway beef.

Sarah Jessica Parker reveals why she has no fashion regrets

Sarah Jessica Parker has insisted she has no fashion regrets. The Sex and the City star has argued there's no point feeling bad about past style choices, no matter how "unflattering" or "ridiculous. She told W Magazine: "I don't regret any of it, because what's the point? "I'm sure there is a laundry list of things I should be telling you that were mistakes, whoopsie-daisies, wrong, misguided, unflattering. "[But] all of it has been a gift; all of it has been ridiculous. All of it has been exhausting; all of it has been thrilling. "All of it has been like I'm in a world that is just barely based in reality. What is there to regret?" However, the 60-year-old star - who has 15-year-old twin daughters Tabitha and Marion with husband Matthew Broderick - admitted their kids aren't too fussed about borrowing her clothes or shoes at this point. She said: "The sad truth is they don't fit them anymore. Their feet are the wrong size, and it's not going backwards. "Thus far, they're not really raiding my closet or anything... They'll be 16 in June, and they like clothing, but it's not playing an oversize role in their life. "They definitely have ideas about how they want to feel and look when they walk out the door, but they don't seem particularly distracted [by it]." Meanwhile, despite claiming she has no fashion regrets, Sarah did previously admit she made a mistake by wearing a black dress instead of a traditional white wedding gown when she and Matthew tied the knot in 1997. Speaking back in 2016, she told Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen: "I just was too embarrassed to spend any time looking for a wedding dress." And she later admitted to Marie Claire magazine that the couple weren't keen on having the "attention" on them. She said: "I was too embarrassed to get married in white, and both Matthew and I were reluctant to have people pay so much attention to us. Which is ridiculous, because that's when you can relish the attention, when it's natural.'

Kristin Cavallari dated Craig Conover 'for two seconds'

Kristin Cavallari and Craig Conover "became romantic for two seconds". The 38-year-old beauty has revealed that she briefly dated Craig, 36, before the TV star's relationship with Paige DeSorbo became serious. During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Kristin shared: "OK, let's talk about it ... So, Craig and I were friends first, [then] became romantic for two seconds. "The second I caught wind of [his relationship with] Paige, I very politely excused myself from the situation." Asked if there was ever any overlap in the two relationships, Kristin replied: "There was a picture of Craig and Paige in New York — I'll never forget it — and it looked like they were sort of together. "That was the first time anyone had seen them. That was the first time I had heard about it. I saw that picture, and I texted him and I said, 'Hey, let's just be friends.'' Meanwhile, Kristin recently revealed that she's returned to dating apps and is open to finding love once again. The 'Very Cavallari' star has been single since splitting from Mark Estes in 2024 - but Kristin is now hopeful of finding love through a dating app. Speaking on the Let's Be Honest podcast, she explained: "Nashville is awful for dating. That's why I have to be on a dating app." Kristin has actually been invited on dates by a couple of well-known men in recent times. But the reality TV star wanted to focus on her podcast tour before turning her focus towards her love life. Kristin - who was married to former NFL star Jay Cutler between 2013 and 2022 - said: "I was supposed to go on two dates, and I was like, 'You have to wait until after my podcast tour.'" Kristin is actually making a concerted effort to "stay out of headlines" for the moment. Asked if she's been pursued by any "known people", the blonde beauty replied: "These ones are. But, I mean, I'm trying to stay out of headlines while I'm on the podcast. Then after I'm going quiet."
