Why does this story matter?
Schwarzenegger has been on an acting hiatus since 2019. He was last seen in filmmaker Tim Miller's movie Terminator: Dark Fate which also featured Linda Hamilton. FUBAR marks Schwarzenegger's return to acting. It is also his first project since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Meanwhile, FUBAR is created by Nick Santora. It premiered on Netflix last month, on May 25.
A hilarious action-packed family drama
Schwarzenegger plays Luke, a CIA operative and a father. He is recruited for his last assignment where he is asked to rescue a missing agent. It is only during his assignment that Luke finds out that the disappeared agent is none other than his very own daughter Emma (Monica Barbaro). The two indulge in some hilarious family drama packed with high-octane action sequences.

FUBAR stars Schwarzenegger and Barbaro as Luke and Emma. Apart from them, the cast also includes Milan Carter, Aparna Brielle, Jay Baruchel, Andy Buckley, Barbara Eve Harris, Fortune Feimster, Fabiana Udenio, Gabriel Luna, and Travis Van Winkle.
