Arnie releases cheesy trailer for his book

Arnold Schwarzenegger has shot a movie-style trailer to drum up excitement for his forthcoming autobiography.

'Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Story' is due out on 1 October and, according to Arnie, will lift the lid on the inside story of his career.

Watch the video below:

"If my life was a movie, no one would believe it," he begins, before modestly rattling off his achievements, from winning Mr Universe aged 20 to winning the governorship of California in 2003 — rising from 'Terminator' to 'Governator'.

Winding up, he says: "But this story you know. So are you ready for the story you don't?"

It's not yet known whether Arnie delves into his more recent troubles in the memoir, however, including his divorce from wife Maria Shriver amid accusations he fathered a child with the family's housekeeper.
