Arnold Schwarzenegger has shared his response to seeing his son performing in a fully-nude scene in his latest TV series.
Getting your kit off on screen is nerve-wracking enough without the thought of your parents one day watching it, but many actors do it for their art.
Patrick Schwarzenegger is one of them, as the 31-year-old bared all for the upcoming series of HBO’s hit show The White Lotus, which is set to hit screens soon.
Proud dad Arnold, 77, shared his thoughts after he went to a screening of the series with his son – and everyone is saying the same thing at his response.
The Terminator star and former governor of California took to Instagram to share a photo of him and Patrick on the red carpet.

He wrote alongside it: “I was so pumped to take a break from filming to celebrate @patrickschwarzenegger at the White Lotus Season 3 premiere.
“What a show! I could claim to be surprised to find out he has a nude scene, but what can I say – the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.”
He added: “Don’t miss it this Sunday – trust me.”
Fans all focused in one one part of his message, writing: “Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree? Wth.”
Others added: “The apple does not fall from its tree lol” and: “the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, great reply.”
Many fans praised Arnold for supporting Patrick despite the awkward subject matter, writing: “It’s good to see parents not loose their cool about stuff like that.”
Others added: “A proud father celebrating his son’s success! Excited to see Patrick shine in White Lotus Season,” and: “Awe, man! I love Arnie. I’m happy to see him supporting his clone.”
This season of The White Lotus will take place in Thailand and sees Patrick starring alongside Jason Isaacs, Parker Posey, Aimee Lou Wood, and Walton Goggins.
He will play Saxon Ratliff, the eldest child of Timothy (Isaacs) and Victoria (Posey).
Now, it’s no surprise Arnold was pretty chilled about Patrick’s nude scene as he too has previously stripped off on camera.
Fans of 1984 movie The Terminator will no doubt remember that Arnie bared all himself in that movie.
The new series of The White Lotus will hit screens on February 16.
