Some major news has arrived in the world of streaming, as none other than Arnold Schwarzenegger has been appointed as Netflix’s Chief Action Officer.
The Terminator star is currently gearing up for his TV debut in Netflix’s FUBAR, the comedy drama due to drop later this week.
As well as taking on the lead role of Luke Brunner, a veteran CIA operative on the verge of retirement who is called in for one last mission, Arnie’s also serving as executive producer on the anticipated series.
But it looks like the body-builder-turned-actor is going to be a lot more involved with the streaming giant moving forward.
