Schwarzenegger: Twins Profit-Sharing Was Career Best

News summary

Arnold Schwarzenegger revealed that his most profitable film was the 1988 comedy 'Twins,' in which he, Danny DeVito, and director Ivan Reitman opted for a groundbreaking deal to receive 40% of the film's profits instead of upfront salaries. This arrangement resulted in Schwarzenegger earning over $40 million, making it the most lucrative film of his career. 'Twins' grossed over $200 million worldwide and proved Schwarzenegger's ability to succeed in comedy despite initial skepticism from studios. Plans for a sequel, 'Triplets,' featuring Eddie Murphy, were cancelled after Reitman's death. Schwarzenegger currently stars in the Netflix series 'Fubar' and remains open to future projects with DeVito. The profit-sharing deal exemplifies Schwarzenegger’s business acumen and willingness to take risks beyond his action star image.
