Arnold Schwarzenegger’s playful comment about his son Patrick Schwarzenegger’s nude scene in The White Lotus Season 3 has certainly caught the attention of fans. Arnold, attending the premiere of the show, shared his pride in his son’s performance while humorously referencing his own iconic nude scenes, particularly in The Terminator series. He joked on Instagram, saying, “the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” alluding to his own history of memorable nudity on screen, especially in the sci-fi franchise where Arnold’s character is famously depicted arriving from the future completely unclothed.
Patrick stars as Saxon Ratliff in The White Lotus Season 3, where he plays the son of characters portrayed by Jason Isaacs and Parker Posey. The new season, shot in Thailand, has been described as a satirical exploration of death, Eastern spirituality, and religion—something fans are eagerly anticipating. With a stellar ensemble cast including Blackpink’s Lalisa Manobal, Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, and Walton Goggins, the third season promises to be another exciting addition to the show.
Arnold’s cheeky post certainly gives fans an extra reason to tune in, as they can now look forward to both Patrick’s performance and the inevitable comparisons to his father’s legendary roles!
