Arnold Schwarzenegger Is Back in Action in Teaser Trailer for Netflix's Action-Comedy Series FUBAR
Netflix has released the first teaser trailer for its upcoming action-comedy series FUBAR, and it features Arnold Schwarzenegger back in action! This is actually the first TV series that Schwarzenegger has starred in, and in it, he plays a CIA spy who's about to retire.
As he is making plans to retire he discovers a family secret and is “forced to go back into the field for one last job, FUBAR tackles universal family dynamics set against a global backdrop of spies, action and humor.”
If you’re a fan of James Cameron's True Lies, Schwarzenegger says that this is a show that you’re going to enjoy. He said: "Everywhere I go, people ask me when I'm going to do another big action comedy like True Lies. Well, here it is. FUBAR will kick your ass and make you laugh — and not just for two hours. You get a whole season."
It definitely looks like fun! It seems like Schwarzenegger has finally found a good project that plays to his strengths. The series also stars Monica Barbaro, Jay Baruchel, Aparna Brielle, Andy Buckley, Milan Carter, Fortune Feimster, Barbara Eve Harris, Gabriel Luna, Fabiana Udenio, and Travis Van Winkle.
Nick Santora acts as FUBAR's showrunner and executive producer. He said: "FUBAR is, by far, the most surreal project of my career. I grew up watching Arnold Schwarzenegger films -- I'd hit my dad up for a few bucks so I could race to the movies and see the biggest star in the world on the big screen -- so creating the first scripted television project for Arnold is unbelievably exciting for me," Santora says. "The thing I always marveled at was how Schwarzenegger could be funny while still kicking ass ... that's why I wanted FUBAR to be a hysterical, CIA-spy comedy mixed with heart-stopping action! And it is all that – and more. I'd love to elaborate with more details, but, sorry, it's classified."
The series will premiere on May 25th! Enjoy the trailer!
