 Arnold Schwarzenegger has signed up as the new face of Lidl's DIY and gardening range. No, it's not April Fool's Day, this is genuinely a thing, and the Terminator legend could soon be saying 'aisle be back' as he takes on a new role. The 76-year-old action movie star and former bodybuilder is taking his talents in another direction as the spokesperson of the discount retailer's Parkside range. As reported by the Irish Independent, the collection boasts over 100 products included various tool, gardening equipment and accessories. Arnie – who is almost paying tribute to his past a bricklayer – is set to star in a series of TV and social media adverts as part of the deal. Lidl said in a statement: 'DIY is for everyone – that's what Parkside is all about. The brand is especially aimed at all those who like to repair, build and garden.' 'Garden supplies are right over there!'

Earlier this summer, he hinted at another big ambition and admitted he would be interested in becoming the next president of the United States and shared his confidence that he would win. Immigrating to the US in 1968, the Fubar star became a citizen of the country in 1983 and has enjoyed a successful career in Hollywood ever since.

However, he previously said: 'I mean, I think the field was wide open in 2016. And I think the field is open right now. I mean, think about it right now. I mean, who is there?
