MUMBAI: Arnold Schwarzenegger, who some time ago marked his return to films when he signed up for The Last Stand, is in talks to star in an action film Captive.

The film will have him play an American real estate mogul who is kidnapped and held for ransom. The character, he will play, is held in an armoured truck hidden in a Sao Paolo landfill from which he tries to escape.

No other casting announcements have yet been made.

Once a director for the film is finalized, the filmmaker Furls Films hope to start filming Captive next year.

Schwarzenegger‘s link to the film comes days after it was revealed he will play a small role in Sylvester Stallone‘s The Expendables 2.
