While in high school at Brentwood School, Schwarzenegger took private acting lessons with Nancy Banks. In 2012, he matriculated at the University of Southern California, and in May 2016 received his bachelor's degree from the USC Marshall School of Business, with a major in business administration and a minor in cinematic arts. He was part of the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity.

In the following years, Schwarzenegger had supporting roles in 2012's Stuck in Love, 2013's Grown Ups 2 and 2015's Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse. His first leading role was opposite Bella Thorne in 2018's Midnight Sun, a romantic drama about a teenage girl with a rare medical condition. He starred in the 2019 horror film Daniel Isn't Real. In 2020, Schwarzenegger had a role in Echo Boomers, then in 2021, he went to star in Netflix's comedy-drama coming-of-age film Moxie.

Schwarzenegger had a role in the 2022 HBO true crime mini-series, The Staircase, alongside Colin Firth and Toni Collette. In 2023, Schwarzenegger had a recurring role in the first season of The Boys spin-off series Gen V on Prime Video, as Luke Riordan / Golden Boy, a young man with superpowers described as "a 22-year-old big name on campus who possesses thermonuclear power and pure charisma."

Other ventures In 2011 and 2012, Schwarzenegger interned for Academy Award-nominated producer, John Davis. Schwarzenegger went on to franchise his own Blaze Pizza locations, including one at USC while he was a student there, and one at The Grove in Los Angeles.

Schwarzenegger's other investments include electrolyte drink mix company Liquid I.V., protein coffee brand Super Coffee, and vegan chicken company Nuggs.

In 2020, Schwarzenegger and his mother, who is an advocate for people living with Alzheimer's, created brain nutrition and wellness brand MOSH.
