Jason and Travis Kelce are in LA ‘interviewing for Hollywood movie parts’, Arnold Schwarzenegger jokes on New Heights podcast: ‘I’m not stupid, there’s a reason you’re here!’
Jason and Travis Kelce are lining up a new career in the world of Hollywood and are currently in Los Angeles interviewing for parts. That is, according to Arnold Schwarzenegger anyway.
The acting legend was a superstar guest on the latest episode of New Heights, and both Travis and Jason delighted in picking his brains about his life and career.
Travis in particular has been open about his plans to break into the entertainment business when he retires from the NFL, and Schwarzenegger was quick to joke about the reason the famous NFL brothers headed across to the west coast this week.
‘I know you [Jason] have now retired, right?’ the acting icon began. ‘So that means you [Travis] are going to continue on and win another Super Bowl. [Travis: Fire me up! Fire me up, Arnie!]
‘What else are you going to do? Win another Super Bowl, that’s what it is. As a matter of fact, you might win another one after that.
‘You now [Jason], this is maybe off the record but no-one is going to blabber out there… he’s probably here doing some interviews for movie parts.
‘A lot of times you guys do the show where you are in another place, and you are in another place, and it’s a split-screen thing which really works well… but now you’re together because you’re in Hollywood. I’m not stupid, there is a reason why those guys are out here together in Hollywood.
‘There’s all kinds of interviews being scheduled, I know, for movie parts. You guys have it lined up, you just don’t want to give it away right now, I know how it works.’
Jason and Travis stayed tight-lipped and immediately changed tack, asking Arnie instead about how he chooses which movies to star in.
But it is clear that Travis does have one eye on his post-football career, and he has already started dabbling in the movie world, having been an executive producer on recent movie ‘My Dead Friend Zoe’.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Kelce was also asked about his appearance on Saturday Night Live in 2023 and if scripted comedy is on his radar.
