FUBAR, a new original series from Netflix, will mark Arnold Schwarzenegger’s television debut and be the action icon’s first-ever tv series. If you’re excited to see this new show, we must inform you of everything there is to know about it, including the premiere date, plot summary, and more!
What Is FUBAR All About?
FUBAR originated as a military acronym standing for either “Fucked Up Beyond All Repair” or “Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition”—Schwarzenegger has used both while describing the series.
Nick Santora conceptualized the project, which was initially announced in 2020 and developed by Skydance Television (Santora served as writer and producer on the hit show Scorpion, and also developed Reacher for Amazon, a show based on the popular Jack Reacher book series from Lee Child). Schwarzenegger has previously collaborated with Skydance to produce Terminator: Genisys and Terminator: Dark Fate.
In the series, Schwarzenegger plays a CIA operative whose retirement plans are jeopardized by having to take on a new task that is far too personal for him and his family. It is is undoubtedly one of the most eagerly awaited new action series of the year, with a promising cast and creative team accompanying Arnold on his latest journey.
Fubar Synopsis
Here’s the official synopsis via Netflix Media Center:
“A CIA Operative on the verge of retirement discovers a family secret. Forced to go back into the field for one last job, the series tackles universal family dynamics set against a global backdrop of spies, action and humor.“
Is There A Trailer For FUBAR Yet?
On February 27, 2023, Netflix published the first teaser trailer for FUBAR, and it is unquestionably a teaser in every sense of the term. The first look of FUBAR is less than thirty seconds long and features several aspects that scream Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Smoking Stogie cigars, starting fires, and shooting firearms. The first teaser for FUBAR features all of these images before reiterating Arnold Schwarzenegger’s catchphrase, “I’ll be back,” which was first used in The Terminator (1984). The teaser ends with a quick comic dialogue between Luke Brunner, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger, and his buddy Roo (Fortune Feimster).
