Arnold Schwarzenegger and Monica Barbaro Interview FUBAR & Filming the Puppet Scene
255From executive producer and showrunner Nick Santora (Prison Break), Arnold Schwarzenegger makes his streaming series debut as lead in FUBAR, which is now streaming on Netflix. Opposite co-star Monica Barbaro (Top Gun: Maverick), the two play a father-daughter duo who discover that they share more than genetics when they find out they’re both working for the CIA. In an interview with Collider’s Steve Weintraub, Schwarzenegger teases the series, promising fans will get “the whole inventory” of Arnolds with the adventure-comedy.
In the eight-episode series, which also stars Jay Baruchel, Fabiana Udenio, Travis Van Winkle, and Adam Pally, CIA operative, Luke Brunner (Schwarzenegger), is finally able to retire and focus on his family. With every intention of spending time with his daughter, Emma (Barbaro), and winning back the love of his life, ex-wife Tally (Udenio), Luke is called back for one last mission. This final job requires him to rescue a fellow operative under the codename Panda, but when he finds out Panda is Emma, this father and daughter realize they have a lot to learn about each other.
During their interview, which you can watch in the video below or read along in the transcript, Schwarzenegger and Barbaro reveal one of the most difficult scenes to capture, and it wasn’t because of the intense stunts or fighting choreography. They talk about improvising together, the many facets of Arnold Schwarzenegger, and what it feels like for Barbaro to go from working with Tom Cruise on Top Gun: Maverick to co-starring with the Terminator himself.
