Patrick Schwarzenegger Transformation: Photos Then and Now

All grown up! Patrick Schwarzenegger has grown into a strapping gentleman since he first stepped out on a red carpet in 2008. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver‘s oldest son is now an accomplished actor and a hot Hollywood commodity.

The Staricase star scored his biggest role yet by landing a leading part in season 3 of HBO’s award-winning drama White Lotus. The series premieres in early 2025.

“What an honor it was to work & learn from some of the most talented actors in the world. You all made this project a lifetime of memories,” Patrick gushed in an August 9, 2024, Instagram post the day production wrapped. He spent six-and-a-half months in Thailand shooting the show, thanking creator and showrunner Mike White “for making a kid’s dream come true.”

Patrick added about White Lotus and its closely guarded plot lines, “Can’t wait for you guys to see this season. It’s fu&!ng nuts!!!!!”

Is that you, Arnold? The actor looked like the spitting image of his father when he was spotted out and about in 2011.

The following year, Patrick tried his hand at acting again with a supporting role in the 2012 film Stuck on Love. The same year, he began studying at the University of Southern California.

2018

Patrick decided to grow his hair out in 2018, which worked well for his character in Daniel Isn’t Real.

The California native continued to play supporting roles in 2016 and 2017 — before he won his first leading role in 2018’s romantic drama Midnight Sun. He starred in the film opposite Bella Thorne.
