Arnold Schwarzenegger became an action icon in Hollywood. When Arnie’s children were born, they spent time with their father on sets of different films. After growing up in such an environment, his eldest son developed a passion for acting. Soon enough, the youngster followed in his father’s footsteps and started his acting career. About a year and a half ago, the actor made an ambitious prediction for his career while standing in the middle of Times Square.

One of the many giant billboards on Times Square displayed Patrick Schwarzenegger as a ‘supe’ in the upcoming Amazon Prime series Gen V. The actor stars in the show as one of the ‘supes’ or superhumans from The Boys universe. The show itself is a spin-off of the massively popular Amazon Prime show, The Boys. A few hours later, the eldest son of Arnold Schwarzenegger added another story.

In the third story, the actor wrote about how he had filmed the video.?“This was a year n half ago. Manifested this!”?he wrote in the story. In the video filmed 18 months ago, Patrick Schwarzenegger made a proclamation.?“In one year, maybe in two years actually, I will have some kind of billboard in Time Square,” said the actor. It looks like his prophecy came true. However, the show that got him to Times Square billboard shocked his father.

One of the unique aspects that made?The Boys?is that it didn’t shy away from showing violent scenes. As a parody of the PG-13-approved superhero films,?The Boys?embraced ultra-violence. Its spin-off,?Gen V?will be no different when it hits Amazon Prime. So when the 30-year-old showed Arnie a behind-the-scene picture, he flipped out.
