The Night Agent
While on duty on a hotline, an FBI official receives a call that draws him into a deadly plot that includes a double agent in the White House. According to Matthew Quirk's book (French title: Une affaire personnelle).
In the world of television where action-packed thrillers often collide with humor, FUBAR stands out as a unique gem that has successfully captured the attention of audiences. Released on May 25, 2023, on Netflix, this American action-comedy series showcases Arnold Schwarzenegger in his first leading role in a scripted live-action television show. The series spins an intriguing tale filled with espionage, personal revelations, and plenty of laughs as it delves into the complexities of family dynamics within the high-stakes world of CIA operatives. With just one season comprising eight episodes, now is the perfect time to catch up on this exciting ride before its highly anticipated second season premieres on June 12, 2025.
The premise revolves around Luke Brunner (portrayed by Schwarzenegger), a seasoned CIA operative who finds himself on the brink of retirement when he stumbles upon a shocking family secret: his daughter Emma (played by Monica Barbaro) is also involved with the agency. This revelation forces them back into the field together for one last mission—a scenario that promises both hilarity and tension as they navigate their complicated relationship while confronting dangerous adversaries like Boro Polonia (Gabriel Luna), a powerful arms dealer. The chemistry between Luke and Emma adds depth to their missions; their contrasting personalities create moments that are both humorous and heartfelt.
A stellar supporting cast elevates FUBAR, featuring talents such as Milan Carter as Barry Putt—the tech-savvy CIA officer—and Fortune Feimster as Roo, another operative who adds comedic flair to intense situations. Each character brings something unique to the table; whether it’s Barry's technical expertise or Roo's unwavering loyalty to Luke’s team, viewers will find themselves invested not only in Luke and Emma's journey but also in those who surround them. Fans of shows like *The Night Agent* and *The Recruit* will appreciate how FUBAR combines elements from these similar genres while infusing its own brand of humor.
