After a seven year hiatus from movies, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger will be back on the big screen this August with Expendables.

The 63-year-old star plays a cameo in the Sylvester Stallone directed action adventure movie.

In the recently released trailer of the movie Schwarzenegger utters a crisp one liner about ‘Rocky’ star Stallone, “Give this job to my friend here - he loves playing in the jungle,” in his very own satirical style.

The ‘Terminator’ star appears briefly in a scene where the group are plotting a coup - turns around and walks off after the punchy one liner.

The movie is about a group of aging mercenaries on a rebel mission in South America. The cast includes action movie veterans such as Stallone, Bruce Willis, Dolph Lundgren and Mickey Rourke.

Schwarzenegger has appeared in only a handful of films ever since he became governor of California in 2003.

The Austria-born actor’s last film was ‘Around the World in 80 Days’ in 2004.
