Calum von Moger the former Mr. Universe will take on playing the seven-time Mr. Olympia Arnold Schwarzenegger in “Bigger,” a movie about bodybuilding, according to reports.
“Bigger” a bodybuilding biopic featuring the rise of Arnold Schwarzenegger is in the making – and the film’s just found its young Arnie.
The team behind the Bigger has reportedly cast Calum Von Moger, who has been called “Schwarzenegger 2.0” for his resemblance also hinted at the role on Instagram recently.
Calum certainly has the buff stuff to look like a young Arnold. Now we’ll see if he has the acting muscles.
“Bigger” focuses on bodybuilding pioneers Joe and Ben Weider, described by IMDb as the “grandfathers of the fitness movement.” The brothers are credited with discovering Schwarzenegger and encouraging him to come to the United States, where he first garnered fame competing in the siblings’ Mr. Olympia contest while boosting sales for their magazines and supplements.
The film, directed by George Gallo, is currently shooting in Alabama, Deadline reported. Former “Teen Wolf” stars Tyler Hoechlin and Colton Haynes will also appear in the film as Joe Weider and Jack LaLanne, respectively.

Alan Pickup told u he would get cast as Arnie
Aye a said that tae
They really won’t get off this Calum being the next Arnold fiasco… There is only 1 Arnold. Trinity Martin
Yes, apparently it’s all he has going for him as far as the media is concerned. Not great for his career going forward if that is the only way the media and his fans view him.
And Fitness Volt couldn’t even give Arnold enough respect to finish spelling his last name in the post headline. *SMACK!* ?
Seems happy enough and doing good, good luck to the guy
Trinity Martin Should have chosen Anton Ryskin, the Russian bodybuilder. He looks dead on like Arnold more than Anyone on Earth.
Daniel Anthony Mecca Yea, he looks a lot like him!
Really cool guy and happy to see him making moves!
Calum is a great bodybuilder and very entertaining. Hope he will also be a great actor 🙂
much needed comment!
guys…who else loves [health]
Awesome!!! Very Cool!
Looks a lot like Arnie, only difference is this guy is a retard.
Wtf why?
Huge retard
He’s a male ditz, everything that’s wrong with the sport today.
so not only me thinking like that. hahaha… but he is great muscle.
Just got to fix those arms, biceps are a bit off. Mainly get them cut and get a peak. Amazing physique otherwise.
We just had this conversation – you can’t “build a peak”. That is the genetic shape of his arms, period. This clown is no Arnold, not even close.
Bwahahahahaha that’s funny. History and the pros say otherwise but feel free to set your limits.
Mike Strutz uhhh wrong. The bicep is made of 2 muscles. You can work the short head of the muscle with certain variations. The short head is what creates the peak. Generally speaking you really can’t control the shape of your muscles…that’s genetics but the peak can be built by building up your short heads.
His bicep muscle body isnt genetically as large as arnies. Ass mongers bicep muscle body is average. Flex your bicep and if u can fit 2 fingers in between where the bicep and forearm 45, then you have an average muscle body. 1 finger your a fucking freak! And 3, you shouldnt flex your arm.
Michael Hager guess imma freak then 😀 😀 lol
Lucky you!!
Gotta pop those peaks … but good pick can’t really think of anyone else who looks remotely close …. won by default… and does this mean he needs to nail a dirty sock looking maid lol
That dirty sock part had me dyyyyiiinnn bro
RG Bowen anytime lol
Trevor Rock
This is so cool
Alycia Keith remember that movie we watched about him?
Yeah. That’s neat
He could play CONAN too
Si Dovey
Nathaniel Borda
Es git nur ein arnold schwarzenegger !!
Couldn’t find a bigger chump for the role
Lets see when this guy has a heart attack?
Looks good but nowhere near Arnolds chest development & bicep peak!
Jason Tomlin
Blaise Collet
Wally Cormier
He’s not very smart, though!
He’s already too old.
I kind of had a feeling he would play a young Arnold Schwarzenegger. He looks a bit like him. I recently watched Generation Iron 2 on Netflix and Calum had gone for an audition to play in a comedic movie and he had also mentioned that he wanted a role like Arnold lol.
Good for Calum. He’ll be persuing his dream or passion.
Dude! You got all the ingridients.
Wow! Great pick
