De@dline says that Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son will follow his father’s path by appearing in the upcoming action movie Gunner. The news source says that Baena, who is 25 years old, will play Wally, who is “a young, green deputy sheriff.” Luke Hemsworth and Morgan Freeman will allegedly join him in the cast.
Thursday, the actor posted a picture of himself in costume with the caption “Deputy Wally reporting for duty” on Instagram to say he had been chosen for the role.
According to Report, the movie, directed by Dimitri Logothetis, “follows Special Forces veteran Lee Gunner (Hemsworth, 42) as he takes his two boys on a camping trip, where they find a fentanyl lab and are taken by drug runners.” “Unfortunately for the drug runners, Lee will stop at nothing to get his boys back safely. He will fight not only the criminal cartel but also the FBI and local police, using all of his deadly skills to bring his family back together,” the synopsis shared by Deadline says.
The movie Gunner is currently being made in Alabama. The script was written by Gary Scott Thompson and Logothetis, who also registered The Fast and the Furious. Deadline says that Logothetis will also be a co-producer with Joel Shapiro, magiCity Studios, and Acme Rocket Fuel. You might also read Was Princess Diana Mentally Ill?

Baena has been in several movies, including Chariot and Bully High, both of which will be released in 2022. In the second movie, Pakistani exchange student Maryam (Aneesha Madhok) is picked on by bullies and bigots at her new high school because she freely wears a hijab. Meanwhile, she and star baseball player Zack (Cedric Begley) fall in love.
Baena told PEOPLE in November 2022 that he sometimes asks his 75-year-old dad, Arnold Schwarzenegger, for advice on his acting job but is still more interested in making things happen in Hollywood. “The main thing is just the work, putting in the work, putting in the reps,” Baena said of Schwarzenegger’s advice. “That’s the first thing we always talk about.”
Baena, the son of Arnold Schwarzenegger and his former maid Mildred Baena, said, “90% of the time, I want to figure it out on my own.” “I want to do the work, do the reps, and work on my skill by myself.

“There’s no easy way to act or to do anything else,” he said. “So, that’s what I want to get out of it: I want to be successful because of how hard I work and how much I want it.” “So I don’t go to him much to ask for help because I want to figure it out alone,” Baena said.
