Arnold Schwarzenegger has opened up about his initial reaction to Chris Pratt dating his daughter Katherine.
The Guardians of the Galaxy star tied the knot with the author earlier this year, and we can only imagine how intimidating it would have been for Chris to meet her folks for the first time...
However, speaking on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Arnie revealed that he approved of his future son-in-law, even if he was initially "blown away" by the news that they were dating.

"I'm really happy that he is such a great guy," he said. "Not only a very talented guy and a great actor and a great star and all this stuff, but a really kind man and kind to my daughter, which is the most important thing for me."
The Terminator: Dark Fate star added: "I was blown away when my daughter was telling me that she was going out with him. [I was like], 'Do you have to be so competitive?
"'I mean, do you have to have a guy that is taller than me, that is bigger than me, that is doing bigger movies than me, all this kind of stuff that makes more money than me? What is going on here?' I think it was really wild to all of a sudden have this guy in the family."
Speaking after they tied the knot, Chris said: "Yesterday was the best day of our lives! We became husband and wife in front of God, our families and those we love. It was intimate, moving and emotional. We feel so blessed to begin this new chapter of our lives."
Terminator: Dark Fate is out now in the UK. It's released in cinemas on November 1 in the US.
