Film Debut
While a podcast, training every day, and working in real estate takes up a lot of time in his schedule, Baena still managed to pursue his dream of acting. 2022 was the first big year for Baena’s filmography.
Baena appeared in two films, Chariot and Bully High in smaller roles, and began shooting for a few more films, some of which are currently in post-production as of June 2023. Over the next few years, Baena is set to appear on the big screen in action roles. Does this sound familiar?
Action Movies
Much like his father Arnold Schwarzenegger, it seems like Baena’s physique has led him to be typecasted as a strong action star. However, he doesn’t necessarily mind these types of roles or their requirement of him being shirtless for a good portion of the film. But he’s ready to embrace a larger range of acting.
“I’m prepared to do the soft roles, to do the really dramatic scenes, the big breakup scenes…I’ve been going to acting classes for so long, and that’s what I’ve been training for, to be able to do anything, to play any kind of role,” he told Unwaxed. While we’re currently waiting to see the films come out in theaters, we got to see Baena on television screens everywhere in 2022 for a very different appearance.
