After the blip in his comeback caused by the revelations of his lovechild, Arnold Schwarzenegger is now back to being a movie star, with filming starting on The Last Stand soon, which is his first proper film since leaving the governor’s office, and now he’s signed up for another. The action star has agreed to take the lead in Black Sands for directors Scott Waugh and Mike McCoy, according to Deadline.
Swordfish’s Skip Woods is responsible for the screenplay, which is about a loner who decides to wage war against a corrupt weapons manufacturer and his private army. The tone is said to be High Plains Drifter meets Man on Fire.
Black Sands is set to begin filming April 1st, 2012. Can Arnie still cut it as an action hero at the age of 65? We’ll have to wait and see.
