AceShowbiz - Arnold Schwarzenegger has shared a photo for the first time since announcing that he underwent a pacemaker installation surgery. The "Terminator: Dark Fate" actor jokingly flaunted a dynamite timer more than one week after going under the knife to get a "machine part" installed.
On Thursday, March 28, the 76-year-old actor and politician made use of his Instagram page to upload a never-before-seen selfie of himself with the dynamite timer. In the photo, it could be seen that he wore a black jacket unzipped to show off the timer, which was attached to his chest and came with a "DANGER: HIGH VOLTAGE" message on it.
Arnold looked in good spirits as he sat down on a black sofa. Along with the snap, he voiced his appreciation for those who have supported him amid his health issue. He wrote in the caption of the post, "Thank you! I've gotten so many kind messages from all over the world."
The former California's 38th governor went on to assure his fans, "But a lot of people have asked if my pacemaker will cause any problems with FUBAR Season 2. Absolutely not." He further revealed, "I will be ready to film in April, and you can only see it if you're really looking for it."
The post came after Arnold opened up about his health issue. In the Monday, March 26 episode of his podcast "Arnold's Pump Club", he said, "Last Monday, [March 18], I had surgery to become a little bit more of a machine: I got a pacemaker."
The actor portraying Luke Brunner on "FUBAR" recalled, "The doctors told me they want many more seasons of FUBAR, and this was the best way! I told them I'd stop in Cleveland on my way home from the U.K., and we'd do it. Monday, I went under and got my new machine part installed."
Before getting the pacemaker installed, Arnold had undergone three open heart surgeries, including elective surgery in 1997 to replace a defective aortic heart valve, and a valve replacement in 2020 at the Cleveland Clinic. In 2018, he had a pulmonary valve inserted in Los Angeles.
