Netflix has announced that its picking up a new series starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Monica Barbaro. The untitled spy series is still in development but the logline goes like this:
When a father and daughter 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.
Arnold had this to say about the upcoming show:
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.
The order is for eight episodes at 60 minutes long. There’s no release date or production time, but we can likely expect this one sometime next year.
So, what do you think of Arnold’s first foray into TV?
