From Page6:
Arnold Schwarzenegger has landed a $3 million deal to star in a Super Bowl commercial for Bud Light, Page Six has learned.
The former California governor has agreed to a deal to star in the humorous beer ad, despite his personal focus on health and fitness.
The “Terminator” star joins a long list of celebrities earning big money for Super Bowl spots, including Laurence Fishburne, Danica Patrick, Scarlett Johansson, David Beckham and Ben Kingsley.
A source told us, “Arnold has shot a series of ads in Japan [a trick used by celebs who want to cash in but without looking greedy at home] but pretty much hasn’t done anything in the US. Persuading him to promote a beer is a big coup for Bud Light.”
Schwarzenegger, who’s still working out his divorce from Maria Shriver, has three films set to come out this year, including the third installment of “The Expendables” franchise. He talks about global warming on the Showtime series “Years of Living Dangerously,” and is expected to return in “Terminator: Genesis” in 2015.
Neither his spokesperson nor reps for Bud Light got back to us for comment.
