Netflix debut for Arnold Schwarzenegger: “This series will kick your ass”

“Everywhere I go, people ask me when I’m going to do another big action comedy like ‘True Lies.’ Well, here she is,” Arnold Schwarzenegger said of his eight-part Netflix series Fubar.
The series, which was announced in 2020, will premiere on Netflix on May 25th. This is the start of another chapter in the incredibly varied career of Austria’s biggest Hollywood star, because “Fubar” is both the main role and streaming debut of the Styrian (75), who remarked in style: “The series will kick your ass and make you laugh bring.”
The ‘Terminator’ star and his young colleague Monica Barbaro (32, ‘Top Gun: Maverick’) star in the production, which Schwarzenegger served as executive producer, a father and daughter who for years kept their CIA activities a secret from each other .
A joint mission puts their relationship to the test.
Schwarzenegger already gave a similar role in the movie “True Lies” (1994). In it, it was “wife” Jamie Lee Curtis from whom the environmental activist, ex-governor and Republican Trump critic hid his main job as a spy. The film was a financial success back in the 1990s, grossing more than $145 million in North America. “Arnie’s” most recent feature film “Terminator Dark Fate” in 2019, in a period in which Hollywood already saw itself as a billion-dollar business, no longer had this economic power: it “only” made 262 with a budget of 185 million dollars million dollars worldwide, in North America only a mere 62 million dollars. Another argument in favor of switching to streaming.
