Schwarzenegger Is Getting Back In The Action-Comedy Game
For too long, audiences have missed their favorite Austrian action star also cracking jokes, and not just skulls. Fans loved seeing the star show his comedic chops in classics like Twins, Jingle All The Way, and as Mr. Freeze saying ice pun after ice pun in Batman & Robin. The star proved time and time again that he could do so much more than just look cool standing in front of explosions. Just last year, he finally returned to the genre in Netflix’s FUBAR. The series starred Schwarzenegger as a CIA agent on the edge of retirement who, while on one last mission, discovers his daughter also secretly works for the CIA. Audiences loved seeing him return to the genre so much that Netflix has already renewed it for a Season 2.
This new release of Kindergarten Cop can be purchased starting on January 23. To see more of Schwarzenegger’s comedic chops, FUBAR is currently available to be streamed on Netflix in the United States. Check out the film’s trailer below:
