Arnold's film career not so hot either

Claudia Eller and Michael Cieply in the L.A. Times say Schwarzenegger's got issues if he wants to eschew politics and remain a film star. In particular, "how to become a fresh face without diminishing an aura built on the past."

That probably will mean reaching out to filmmakers who once might have courted him, adjusting his screen persona and perhaps taking roles in smaller pictures that would showcase skills that may have escaped notice.

No problem, says director Ivan Reitman: "Arnold's reinvented himself his whole life."
