For Arnold Schwarzenegger, there’s nothing more American than celebrating 40 years of U.S. citizenship with a post on social media.
The bodybuilder-turned-actor-turned-politician-turned avid donkey owner posted a series of photos this weekend that chronicled his time growing up in Austria before he arrived here in 1968 — all while audio of his speech from the 2004 Republican National Convention plays in the background.
Schwarzenegger became a citizen on Sept. 17, 1983.
“My fellow Americans, this an amazing moment for me,” it begins. “To think that a once scrawny boy from Austria could grow up to become governor of the state of California, that is an immigrant’s dream. In school when the teacher would talk about America, I would daydream about coming here. I would daydream about living here. As long as I live, I will never forget the day when I raised my right hand and I took the oath of citizenship. You know how proud I was? I was so proud that I walked around with the American flag around my shoulders all day long.”

The gallery also includes photos of Schwarzenegger as a youth growing up in Austria, as California’s governor, and as a family man.
“It is one of the proudest days of my life,” Schwarzenegger wrote. “I owe everything to America. Born in Austria, Made in America!”
Schwarzenegger recently made his series television debut in Netflix’s spy adventure series Fubar, which was renewed for a second season.
Fubar centers on a CIA operative on the verge of retirement who discovers a family secret and is forced to go back into the field for one last job. The series tackles universal family dynamics set against a global backdrop of spies, action and humor.

When quizzed on the phrase “slept on” his daughter helped him out by using it in a sentence, saying, “The King Of Comedy was slept on.”She was referring to the 1982 movie starring Robert De Niro, in which a sociopathic stand-up comedian carries out a series of disturbing acts to try and achieve fame and success.Scorcese agreed with his daughter and said, “People hated it when it came out.”Despite a generally positive reception from critics, the movie made a significant loss at the box office, making just $2.5million from a budget of almost $20million.However it was not a wholly unsuccessful venture, as Scorcese did receive a nomination for the BAFTA award for Best Direction at the 1984 ceremony, losing out to Bill Forsyth for Local Hero.Having clearly not forgotten the criticism, Scorcese then recalled the precise moment he knew that it was “the flop of the year.” He said, “That’s what it was called on Entertainment Tonight, New Year’s Eve ’83-’84.”Reflecting on making the movie in a previous interview with Vanity Fair from 2015, Scorsese said, “[The King of Comedy] is about a certain aspect of our culture, and also about not taking yourself too seriously, even though I do.
