Arnold Schwarzenegger & Monica Barbaro on why they screwed up every take of the 'FUBAR' puppet scene.
From executive producer and showrunner Nick Santora , Arnold Schwarzenegger makes his streaming series debut as lead in FUBAR, which is now streaming on Netflix. Opposite co-star Monica Barbaro , the two play a father-daughter duo who discover that they share more than genetics when they find out they’re both working for the CIA. In an interview with Collider’s Steve Weintraub, Schwarzenegger teases the series, promising fans will get “the whole inventory” of Arnolds with the adventure-comedy.
COLLIDER: What's funny is I’ve worn this shirt all over the planet and it always gets a reaction from people, and I'm like, “I can't believe I'm gonna get to talk to you today, and I will of, course, wear this shirt.” SCHWARZENEGGER: I would tell them to watch FUBAR. The simple reason is because – not that I'm trying to hype FUBAR now, or to say that it's coming out on, you know, May 25, or anything, this is totally relevant in this case.SCHWARZENEGGER: What I'm trying to tell– you said Netflix? Did I forget Netflix? I forgot Netflix, sorry about that.
BARBARO: [Laughs] I feel like I'm playing it and winning, I think, with my career right now. That's a good point. But no, yeah, sure, I'll buy a ticket today.One of the scenes I enjoyed, it was a scene with you two and the puppets, and I was just thinking, how many takes did it take to actually do that scene without laughing, so you could actually get a take?
SCHWARZENEGGER: I have to say that I cracked up and screwed up a lot of takes because I remember the director got very frustrated at one point.SCHWARZENEGGER: What would happen was that, somehow, Monica was able to do every take a little differently, and so there was always another schtick in there that made me surprised and made me laugh. So eventually, the guy said to me, the director said, “Hey, Arnold, let's settle down.
