Top 10 Athletes That Became Very Famous Actors!

Apparently, bodybuilding is such a huge stepping stone toward acting, and who better to confirm this than everybody’s favorite Arnold Schwarzenegger. No list like this one would be complete without him, the most popular cross-over actors of all time. Mr. Schwarzenegger competed professionally and managed to take home Mr. Universe and My. Olympia titles which are marvelous feats, but this Austrian found a way to put his magnificent body in a different environment – the movie set and his first ever big role came in 1982’s Conan the Barbarian. After that one, it was all upside for Arnold with roles in the massive hits like the Terminator franchise, Commando, and Total Recall, with trying himself in comedy as well with films like Twins and Kindergarten Cop. But this apparently was not enough for Mr. Schwarzenegger because after all of his movie success he decided he should run for Governor of California, and guess what, he won! His latest endeavors are tied to The Celebrity Apprentice, where he spends a lot of time resurrecting many of his famous movie catchphrases.
