Reportedly, veteran Hollywood star Arnold Schwarzenegger is all set for his first major foray into scripted television. The actor will be seen in a series made by Skydance Television. Schwarzenegger last appeared on the small screen in a one-off episode of popular sitcom Two and a Half Men in 2015.

According to Deadline, Schwarzenegger will also be the executive producer of the yet-to-be-titled project from Scorpion creator Nick Santora. The hour-long series will portray a global spy adventure with a father (Schwarzenegger) and daughter at the centre of the story.

Santora is said to be developing and executive producing the series as part of his overall deal with Skydance. He also serves as the executive producer/showrunner of the studio’s upcoming series ‘Jack Reacher’ for Amazon. The other executive producers of the new series will be Skydance’s David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Bill Bost. Carolyn Harris will oversee the project for the company.

Schwarzenegger and Skydance share a longstanding relationship, thanks to Terminator films Genisys (2015) and Dark Fate (2019), in which he reprised his iconic role of T-800 in the latest sequels of the popular sci-fi franchise.

The studio is expected to take the project to streamers shortly.
