Following a successful career in bodybuilding, Arnold Schwarzenegger took notice of the audience by launching himself into action movies. Through his iconic roles, the actor established himself as an unrivaled force in the glamorous world of entertainment. 90s moviegoers might remember how the Austrian-born titan stepped into the limelight with Conan the Barbarian and never looked back since. From portraying powerful heroes to ruthless villains, robots, and even kindergarten cops, he served viewers well. But like everyone knows that after seeing the peak of success, every shining star once falls and he did too. Alas! Last Action Hero was one of the films that sorely wounded the image of this global superstar.

Although Arnold Schwarzenegger is considered one of the most reputed actors in the entertainment industry, his 1993 satirical comedy turned out to be the worst nightmare of his filming career. It was a box office disaster that couldn’t even reach a bit close to his blockbuster films, like The Terminator and Commando.

According to Stuff, the movie failed badly because the former California Governor was experienced in playing a singular type of role. The True Lies star has never been flexible at taking up different genres and characters that this film necessarily needed. So this is one of the primary reasons why critics and viewers could not connect with the storyline. Not to mention, the marketing strategies and direction of the film were also not up to the mark.

Many thought that Schwarzenegger’s casting was misguided, which led to a self-critiquing performance from the star. Now the actor is once again returning to the world of acting with his action-packed moves and dialogues.

Arnold Schwarzenegger makes his TV debut in FUBAR

For the first time in his decades-long career, Arnold Schwarzenegger has been cast in a television scripted series. As per the Deadline, Netflix won the bidding war and acquired the rights of releasing FUBAR on their platform.

The executive producer Nick Santora, who always has been a big fan of the 75-year-old, has said that the series is filled with amazing comedy and heart-stopping action.
