Arnold Schwarzenegger to star in Netflix TV show FUBAR

Arnold Schwarzenegger is perhaps the most successful working entertainer of all time. He was also the father of several children. Numerous catchphrases, is making his way to the one place he hasn’t flexed on yet: scripted television. His role will be in FUBARNetflix will soon have a brand new action comedy called ‘The Killing,’ which is available on Netflix starting May 1.

FUBAR, an acronym for fucked up beyond all repair (though it could mean something different in the show — Fun Ultimate Badass Arnold Ruckus, maybe), is created by TV writer Nick Santora (Prison Break, Reacher). Described by Santora as “a CIA spy comedy mixed with heart-stopping action,” details are pretty slim beyond the fact that hey: Arnold is coming to TV! That’s tight, yeah? (It is.)

The announcement teaser for the show doesn’t really offer much more than that, showing off a brief montage of Arnold doing very Arnold things – lighting a cigar, firing a gun, driving a car very fast — and then getting slapped in the jimmy, just so you know that the show will be funny, too.

“Everywhere I go, people ask me when I’m going to do another big action comedy like True Lies,” According to a press release, the actor was referring to himself as an action star. “Well, here it is. FUBAR will kick your ass and make you laugh — and not just for two hours. You get a whole season.”

Unfortunately, Arnold has not yet said how long the season will be, but we’ll take as much as we can get. Did you know he’s got a fitness newsletter these days? It’s pretty fun.

FUBARNetflix will air the first episode on May 25, 2018.
