Arnold Schwarzenegger out of The Expendables 2?

Arnold Schwarzenegger could have messed up his Hollywood comeback.

The Terminator star was set to reprise his mercenary role for close friend Sylvester Stallone in The Expendables 2 but may now duck out following revelations he fathered a lovechild with a former staff member.

“Arnold’s first priority right now is his family and his public image,” says a source close to the former politician.

“He is still looking to revive his acting career but he is mindful of the type of roles that he should be seen in. He’s not sure a trigger happy macho man would go down very well right now.”
