MUMBAI: Former governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger has decided to return to his former role as a Hollywood action hero. The 63-year-old actor‘s second term as Governor of America‘s most populous state ended last month.

It is interesting to note that his film career had been on the wane before he announced his bid for the governorship in 2003, as a Republican. This happened when his films like End of Days , The 6th Day and Collateral Damage failed to hit the $100 million mark at the North American box-office.

His return to films, is seen as timely as these days Hollywood suffers from a lack of brawny, laconic action men.
