As well as the facial hair and Christmas attire, the star was in character with facial prosthetics.

Arnold Schwarzenegger was filming scenes for The Man With The Bag, in which he stars alongside Alan Ritchson.

While full details of the new movie have yet to be revealed, an official summary reads: "When Santa’s magic bag is stolen, he turns to his naughty list to find Vance, a former thief, to help him get it back.

"Along with his daughter, Santa, and a group of misfit elves, Vance will have to pull off the greatest heist of his life to save Christmas."

Arnold starred in the 1996 Christmas classic Jingle All The Way.

He recently became a grandfather for the third time after his daughter Katherine, 35, welcomed son Ford Fitzgerald Schwarzenegger Pratt with actor husband Chris Pratt in November.

The couple are also parents to Lyla Maria, four, and Eloise Christina, two.
