Arnold Schwarzenegger is still known to the general public as that gigantic muscle bundle. But well, you don't just get there. From bodybuilder to actor to governor of California. And certainly the latter is something people absolutely would not have thought possible. How did he pull this off?

Add to that the fact that he fathered an illegitimate child with his housekeeper and then you have more than enough reasons for Netflix to put together a good documentary. And that is exactly what they did: Arnold will be online on June 7, but the trailer has just been dropped.

And I must say: it looks really cool. I actually know very little about Arnold Schwarzenegger, except that he is muscular, plays the Terminator, and says ‘I'll be back’. This documentary shows much more than that; it really follows his entire life. What drives him? What was his motivation? How did he deal with the breakup of his family after his infidelity? What were his dreams in politics?

In terms of documentary, it has so far reminded me a bit of The Last Dance about Michael Jordan, also very well put together. I know for sure that many people will be talking about this for a long time.
