In a few months, he'll be putting on the full fighting gear for Terminator 3, but until then Arnold Schwarzenegger is trying his hand at comedy again.

The action-hero is filming "Ump" over at the MGM studios. The black comedy makes Arnie a hitman who kills almost all members of three mob families and then goes to small town America to hide out. Of course, the locals think he is great and he turns the town around.

Comedy is a good genre to go with when you are wanting to make an image change as Arnold is desperately trying to do. So "Ump" was a smart choice...a comedic hitman. Good call Arnie.
