He's back! Arnold Scwarzenegger is living up to his promise in a new action-packed position.
The Terminator actor is taking on a new role with Netflix—Chief Action Officer. For someone who has starred in action movies for most of his career, this should be a smooth transition for the 75-year-old. But what does such a role entail?
"Nobody knows action like Arnold Schwarzenegger," read a May 22 press release from Netflix. "Arnold is working around the clock to bring you the most explosive series and films on earth! Get ready for a hard-hitting roller coaster ride as Netflix cranks its action slate into the next gear."
In a promo released by Netflix announcing their new "CAO," the former governor of California rolls up to the streaming service's headquarters. And we mean that literally.
"No one loves action as much as I do," Arnold says in the video, pulling up in an army tank. "That's why I've accepted a big new job as Netflix's Chief Action Officer."
Arnold goes on to introduce some of Netflix's hottest upcoming action movies and shows, including Extraction 2, starring Chris Hemsworth, a new season of The Witcher with Henry Cavill and Heart of Stone, a spy thriller with Gal Gadot.
And, in his first-ever television role, Arnold himself will be starring in the upcoming series FUBAR, which comes out on May 25.
In FUBAR, Arnold stars alongside Monica Barbaro as the two play a father and daughter duo who realize that they both secretly work for the CIA, turning an undercover mission all the more complicated.
And when it comes to whether he's up to the challenge of this new role, Arnold himself says it best in the promo, "Nobody knows action like I do. And nobody hits like Netflix."
