Arnie got right to the point when on Kimmel.

'I was blown away when my daughter was telling me that she was going out with him,' Arnold said. '[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 … makes more money than me? What is going on here?"'

Arnold and Chris are both reportedly 6ft2in.

Arnold is a massive action star who got his break in the 1980s with The Terminator. He went in to star in films like Total Recall, Red Sonja and True Lies as well as the action comedy Kindergarten Cop.

Pratt started off as a comedian and was on TV's Parks And Recreation for years before her slimmed down to play a handsome, cocky dinosaur trainer in Jurassic World.

He is working on the third installment now with Bryce Dallas Howard. Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum and Sam Neill are reportedly back on board too.

Pratt wed Katherine in Montecito, California in June after dating for one year. Arnold was in attendance at the wedding with his ex, journalist Maria Shriver.

Arnold then added: 'I’m really happy that he is such a great guy. 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.'

He also toldKimmel he is impressed that Chris likes to work out: 'The first thing when we met, he says, "Can we have a workout together? I need to have the inside scoop to the pumping iron,"' said Arnold.

'Pumping iron was the decision-making factor, absolutely. We were in the gym, that was it.'

He also said: 'When I watched him make his moves in the gym, the incline press specifically did it.'

Schwarzenegger had been due to walk the red carpet at Hollywood’s historic TCL Chinese Theatre on Monday evening with co-star Linda Hamilton.

However, studio Paramount Pictures made the decision early on to scrap the glitzy event due to the fire that burned more than 600 acres on LA's pricey west side and forced the closure of the 405 freeway,one of the city's main arteries.

The wildfirebroke out at about 1.30am local time along the 405 Freeway near the world famous Getty Centre and about 10,000 structures were placed under mandatory evacuation orders by the Los Angeles Fire Department.

In a statement, Paramount Pictures said the studio would donate the food intended for the post-premiere party to be given to the American Red Cross which was providing services to those affected by the fire.
