Could it be? Could Arnold Schwarzenegger still have one last go around in him as two of his most loved characters? Can Arnie make it happen?

The Arnold Sports Festival is held in Columbus, Ohio each year, a men’s bodybuilding event named after the former Governor and action movie legend.

78-year-old Schwarzenegger was there this time, and he apparently talked about returning to some of his roles.

TheArnoldFans wrote these up, and now the story is proliferating across the internet.

Dan Trachtenberg’s animated Predator: Killer of Killers included an epilogue that featured Dutch.

Schwarzenegger referred to that this weekend, and gave a little more:

“They did an additional Predator and the director (Dan Trachtenberg) has been doing a great job of that. Now, he wants me to be in the next Predator. We’ve talked about it.

He went even further, adding:

As a matter of fact, Fox Studios has kind of rediscovered ‘Arnold’. They’ve come to me and said, ‘We want you to do Predator, we just got a script for you to do ‘Commando 2’.”

John Matrix to return? Well, there are always ice creams to be eaten and deer to be hand fed.

So what about the one that started it all, Conan The Barbarian? Schwarzenegger dropped a big bomb here:

“They just hired a fantastic writer/director who did Tom Cruise’s last four movies. They just hired him to write and direct King Conan. Now, what they do is that they write the part. They don’t write them like i’m forty years old, you write it to be age-appropriate. I’ll still go in there and kick some ass but it will be different.

With King Conan, its a great old story that Conan was forty years as King and now he gets forced out of the kingdom and there’s conflict, of course, but somehow he comes back and there’s all kinds of madness, violence, magic and creatures and stuff like that. And now, of course, there’s all kinds of special effects. The studio has plenty of money to make those movies really big so i’m looking forward to all of those projects.”

King Conan has been in development hell for years, in various forms. Everyone from original director John Milius to the Wachowski brother/sisters was attached at some point.

Will it finally arrive as part of a last hurrah for Arnie, a sort of “Greatest Hits” tour?
