Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito have been reunited at an awards ceremony in Germany.
The stars of the 1988 comedy Twins met at the Golden Camera awards in Hamburg, where surprise guest Danny presented Arnie with the international lifetime achievement prize, reported Us Weekly.
The Terminator star, 67, was visibly touched when they met, and the two friends – who will soon be reunited on the big screen in sequel Triplets – exchanged a handshake and a hug on stage.
Arnie encouraged aspiring actors in his acceptance speech. He also dedicated his prize to the “dreamers trying to enter the film business”, advising them: “Do not give up!”
The pair are set to reprise their roles as fraternal twins Julius and Vincent Benedict for the Twins sequel, which is on a temporary hiatus. Eddie Murphy is meant to star as their other brother.
Josh Gad, who co-wrote the script, said in a Reddit Ask Me Anything (AMA) that the script has been completed.
“Universal, I think, hit the pause button temporarily for whatever reason – internally I think they are trying to figure out if they want to do a sequel or not. I would say if there’s an outpouring of affection, that may move the needle, but I think it’s on hold right now,” he said.
He added: “But everybody read the script and loved it, so I hope it sees the light of day at some point. It’s there and in great shape.”
Kevin Spacey, Susan Sarandon, Olly Mars and Chic star Nile Rodgers were also honoured at the Golden Camera awards.
