Arnold Schwarzenegger is coming back to movies, he's got two already finished and is working on another with the producers of Act of Valor.
In a talk with TheArnoldFans, the Austrian actor and former governor of California spoke about what he's been up to recently. He talked about shooting The Expendables 2 with "every action hero between the ages of 30 and 100." Then he goes on to talk about filming The Last Stand and starting work on The Tomb with Sylvester Stallone. He wraps up by commenting on The Unknown Soldier, which used to be called Black Sand, with the Bandito Brothers. Those are the directors and producers of the new Navy SEALS flick Act of Valor.

| Schwarzenegger and Stallone have a pre-production meeting for The Tomb in pre-op. |
I had a terrific time after my work as governor to be asked as Stallone to be in Expendables 2, so I flew to Bulgaria and worked there for a few days and it was fantastic! They had Van Damme in the movie and Dolph Lundgren and Stallone and Chuck Norris-- every action hero between the ages of 30 and 100. On the movie set they're having the biggest shootouts, and we have a great time when you do that because they're very funny guys and masters at what they're doing.
From that movie I went on to do The Last Stand which was shot in New Mexico and we shot that from October to December. That was a terrific experience, and that movie's going to come out a little less than a year from now. They're working on editing now, and the visual effects.
The next movie I'm working on again with Sly is The Tomb which will be a prison movie. We are both caught in the most difficult prison to break out of, which is a huge ship out in the ocean, so you can't escape. But of course, we figure it out! (audience laughs)
Then we're going to do The Unknown Soldier which is going to be with the Bandito Brothers that did Act of Valor, the number one movie right now and is getting such notoriety because they shot if for 4 million dollars and it looks like 100 million dollar movie because they got military and shot real action stuff which makes the movie so big and very successful, great story and everything. Those directors are doing Unknown Soldier, we start shooting sometime in June. Hopefully by that time my shoulder will be OK so I can do the stunts, but I'm looking forward to all that.
