Arnold Schwarzenegger's Global Spy Adventure Series Picked Up by Netflix
Netflix has picked up Arnold Schwarzenegger’s upcoming untitled global spy adventure series and has given it an eight-episode order. The one-hour scripted series is Schwarzenegger’s first major move into scripted television.
The series also stars Monica Barbaro (Top Gun: Maverick), and it was created by Nick Santora (Jack Reacher; The Fugitive series). The story seems like it has a True Lies kind of vibe to it. This could be fun!
In the story, “when a father (Schwarzenegger) and daughter (Barbaro) learn that they’ve each secretly been working as CIA Operatives for years, they realize their entire relationship has been a lie and they truly don’t know one another at all. Forced to team up as partners, our series tackles universal family dynamics set against a global backdrop of spies, fantastic action and humor.”
Schwarzenegger said in a statement, “Fans from all over the world have been asking me for a wild ride like this for years, and now they’re finally going to get it because of our great partners at Skydance and Netflix. I am beyond pumped to start work on the show with Nick and Monica and the whole team.”
