Arnold Schwarzenegger has always been someone who aims for the win. The remarkable bodybuilding career that to date has him decorated with the label of the ‘Greatest Bodybuilder’ of all time is a testament to this. Then comes his career in Hollywood and as the Governor of California, Schwarzenegger has remained a cut above the rest. And given how a majority names him as their inspiration, it is only normal for his son to follow his lead. And Joseph Baena has chosen to do just that.

The Terminator actor has five kids. One of them being his son Joseph Baena. While most of Schwarzenegger’s children are used to having the spotlight on them, Baena is once again in the red light zone as he finds himself in a million-dollar lawsuit at the mercy of the court.

It is unclear, however, why Schwarzenegger’s production company has been brought into the lawsuit. But Arnold Schwarzenegger and Baena’s team have denied all charges in court, and are fighting back. The accusations, however, are not one to go away lightly, as Saam’s team has argued that he may suffer from a permanent disability owing to Baena’s carelessness.
