Nick Santora: Last News

For folks older than 35, it’s hard to think about any one actor who defines the action genre as much as Arnold Schwarzenegger. For years, he was the biggest name in all of the film industry and just his appearance in a film would make it a blockbuster.

Julia MacCary editor Arnold Schwarzenegger is back. Netflix has released the first teaser trailer for the “Terminator” star’s upcoming action-comedy series, titled “Fubar.” “Everywhere I go, people ask me when I’m going to do another big action comedy like ‘True Lies.’ Well, here it is,” Schwarzenegger said in a statement. “‘Fubar’ will kick your ass and make you laugh — and not just for two hours. You get a whole season.” “Fubar” will show what happens when a father and daughter discover their entire relationship was built on a lie and that they are each CIA operatives. As the two join forces, the eight-episode series will depict themes of family dynamics with humor, action and, of course, spies. The trailer shows Schwarzenegger lighting a cigar, skirting corners and walking away from a literal dumpster fire.

Joshua Alston Know this about Jack Reacher: He’s an awfully tall drink of brackish water.No more than 10 minutes go by in “Reacher,” Prime Video’s series adaptation of Lee Child’s durable book franchise, without someone mentioning the eponymous character’s intimidating stature. Reacher, played here by Alan Ritchson (“Titans”), is described at various points as a “giant,” “Frankenstein’s monster,” and, without irony, as “250 pounds of frontier justice.” When characters aren’t conjuring turns of phrase to describe Reacher’s size, the camera is employing forced perspective techniques to render him even larger than the 6 feet 5 inches established in Child’s canon.The emphasis on Reacher’s physique is a good-faith gesture to fans of Child’s 26-and-counting novels, some of whom bristled at the pair of Reacher films featuring Tom Cruise as a featherweight version of the legendary bruiser.
