Joseph Baena joined Sylvester Stallon's daughters Sophia and Sistine Stallone on their "Unwaxed" podcast on January 18 to discuss how being the son of Arnold Schwarzenegger has affected him. During the interview, he opened up about not having a relationship with his dad for the first several years of his life and growing up with his mom. He told the Stallone sisters that "it took a little while" to get close to his father and that he also felt "nervous" about building a relationship with him, stating, "I didn't want him to think bad of me." However, the father and son are now incredibly "close" and "joke about everything." The "Terminator" star even loves hearing about Joseph's girlfriends and any associated relationship drama.

Despite the slow start to their relationship, Joseph looks up to his father. During an episode of E! News' "Daily Pop" in December 2021, he revealed that Schwarzenegger "influenced a lot of things: the path that I have taken with acting, with fitness and my physique and the many other things that I'm doing." Since Joseph and Schwarzenegger are reportedly so close now, many have wondered why they have different last names. In the same "Daily Pop" episode, Joseph explained that it's important to him to make his own name for himself. In the meantime, Joseph is following in his father's footsteps as an actor — and bodybuilder — and has roles in a number of coming projects, per IMDb.
