Joseph Baena is the youngest son of the bodybuilding legend Arnold Schwarzenegger. And from his love for fitness to his desire to make it big on the silver screen, he surely is following in the footsteps of his father. However, his goal is still somewhat different. While Arnie hit the gym to compete in prestigious events, Baena desires to work out to build the physique of a Hollywood superhero.

Joseph Baena gladly accepts that he has inherited his father’s genetics. But, his mission is to etch a name for himself, not being under the shadow of anyone. Looks like, with such an uncanny resemblance, it is pretty much impossible to not relate to his father. He recently posted a picture, and the comments section is a standing testament to it.
