Arnold Schwarzenegger has ruled out making a sequel to 'Junior'.
The comedy movie - which was critically panned - starred the 67-year-old actor as Dr Alex Hesse, a research geneticist who falls pregnant after taking an unapproved fertility drug, a role which Arnold has promised never to revive.
The former Governor of California said: "There's certain movies that we went a little overboard.
"The fact of the matter is, this is life. You make movies and do things. Some of the stuff is successful, and some stuff go down the toilet."
The father-of-five added that he was expecting the movie - which also starred Danny DeVito and Emma Thompson - to be much better than it actually was when it was released in 1994.
He said: "I've had great successes and a lot of things that went in the toilet and failed. There's no science to the whole thing.
"You read scripts and think it's a great idea, and then when you see it and realise that it's not quite how you envisaged it, you move on."
However, Schwarzenegger - who will reprise his Terminator character in 2015 in 'Terminator: Genisys' - confirmed there will be a 'Twins' sequel, entitled 'Triplets', and also revealed a sequel to futuristic action flick 'The Running Man' is in the pipeline.
During a Q&A in London on Friday evening (14.11.14), he explained: "They're doing a 'Twins' sequel, to be called 'Triplets'. I've read the first draft. There's rumblings of a new 'Running Man' movie, so it's a great honour to be asked back."

While discussing her achievements over the past decade in an article for You magazine, she said: "So much has happened to me in the past 10 years.

She said: "I await the next offers on stage and screen with interest."
Judi feels she has been able to keep her options open when it comes to new parts as she has avoided being typecast in certain roles.

Jim was initially reluctant to do a sequel, but decided to sign on after fans begged him for two decades.
He added to Us Weekly magazine: "I'm not really a sequel guy. [But] I realised I wanted to be with the gang again. I was like, 'Let's go have some fun!' "
"Lloyd is a part of me. I just whack the tooth out and start thinking selfishly.
"I tried to get them to turn it into a vampire movie, but no go! I did make sure the Mutt Cutts van made an appearance."

Jennifer Aniston loved acting out her "wild fantasies" in 'Horrible Bosses 2'.
The 45-year-old actress reprises her role as sexually predatory dentist Julia in the comedy sequel and while she found some of her alter ego's antics "shocking", she had fun letting go of her inhibitions.
She told LOOK magazine: "It was kind of shocking for me. But I loved the character and the writing was so good that it gives you the chance to really let loose and not feel inhibited in any way.
"I think we all have strange thoughts or moments where you imagine what it would be like to get really wild.
"It's very rare that you ever get to act out those kinds of fantasies and that's why acting can be so stimulating really, because it's the very nature of the process to totally throw yourself into the mind of the character."
And Jennifer - who is engaged to Justin Theroux - particularly enjoyed working on the sequel because it meant spending time with her close friend Jason Bateman.
She said: "Jason and I have been friends for a long time and we always enjoy spending time together.
"I love working with him because we can't stop each other from laughing sometimes. It's like having this ongoing rapport because we know each other so well and we don't really have any secrets from each other.
"These friendships are pretty rare in life and I really value having Jason as someone I've known over the years."

Cruz Beckham is to enrol in acting lessons.
The youngest son of David and Victoria Beckham - who also have boys Brooklyn, 15, and Romeo, 12, and daughter Harper, three - is said to be keen to embark on a movie career and while his father doesn't want him to rush into anything that will prevent him leading a "normal" life, his mother has come up with a compromise for the nine year old's ambitions.
A source said: "Cruz wants to be an actor and is begging to go to auditions and make a start.
"David thinks he's too young but Victoria suggested they get him acting lessons so he has the right tools for the future."
While Victoria wants to encourage her kids' showbiz ambitions, David would prefer to be more "cautious" and keep them out of the spotlight as much as possible.
The source told Closer magazine: "Victoria and David want their children to have a normal life. Victoria thinks that, if they have a passion, they should jump at opportunities.
"David is cautious about them having too much too young. He wants them to have a balance.
"David wants them to have a childhood and stay focused on school. Victoria's incredibly strict with school too, but she sees how exciting these opportunities are and is much more keen."

The 'Fast & Furious' franchise will release "at least" three more films.
According to Universal Pictures executive Donna Langley, the series is "still growing" and multiple follow ups to the 7th instalment of the action movie, 'Furious 7' which is set for release in April 2015, are being considered.
She also addressed concerns for the future of the franchise following the death of one of the movie's stars, Paul Walker, who passed away in a car accident in November last year.
She told The Hollywood Reporter: "We think there's at least three more.
"Paul [Walker] is, and always will be, an integral part of the story. But there are many other great characters, and it's also an opportunity to introduce new characters. I think it's still a growing franchise.
"We'll see what happens with Furious 7, obviously, but our box office has grown over the past three or four films and internationally, in particular. So we think that there's more to mine there. But we're of course very mindful about fatigue."
The statement follows reports that 'Fast & Furious 6' director Justin Lin will be returning to the franchise to film a double finale for the series.

Stanley Tucci has compared his character in 'The Hunger Games' to a Nazi.
The 54-year-old actor can see similarities between Master of Ceremonies Caesar Flickerman, and Adolf Eichmann, one of the major forces behind the Holocaust who he portrayed in 'Conspiracy' in 2001.
He explained: "I think [he is heartless]. I think he moves himself. Many years ago I played Adolf Eichmann, who is one of the most horrible people ever.
"In reading about him I realised there were some similarities, I realised that they're removed. With the emotional distance, they can compartmentalise things."
In 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1' - the latest installment in the series which premiered this week - Stanley's character interviews Peeta Mellark multiple times for propaganda footage supporting the Capitol, against an uprising led by Katniss Everdeen, played by Jennifer Lawrence.
And the veteran actor believes his alter ego behaves the way he does for many reasons.
He said: "He's doing it because he believes it's for the greater good. He's doing it because he thinks this is the way society should be, and also it's self preservation."

Michelle MacLaren is in talks with Warner Bros. to direct the studio's first standalone 'Wonder Woman' movie.
The Canadian producer is best known for her work on the popular drama series 'Breaking Bad', which has become a worldwide hit, and she's now being lined up to helm the much-anticipated new film about the iconic superhero.
The award-winning director - who's also worked on other popular shows, including 'The Walking Dead' and HBO series 'Game of Thrones' - is thought to be the studio's preferred choice, although the studio says it "is not married to the idea of a female director" for the film, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Warner Bros. are also thought to have held discussions with Jennifer Kent, who directed 'The Babadook', and Lesli Linka Glatter of 'Homeland', but those talks are not thought to have related to 'Wonder Woman' specifically.
The character, played by Gal Gadot, will next appear on cinema screens in the eagerly-awaited 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice', which will also feature Hollywood heavyweights like Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill.
The film is set for release in 2016, while 'Wonder Woman' will be released on June 23, 2017.
