Created by “Scorpion” creator Nick Santora, the series is said to be a global spy adventure with a father (Schwarzenegger) and daughter at the center of the story.

Skydance is expected to take out the project to streamers shortly. I hear preliminary casting is underway for the role of the daughter.

Santora is developing and executive producing the spy drama as part of his overall deal with Skydance Television. He also serves as executive producer/showrunner of the studio’s upcoming “Jack Reacher” series for Amazon.

Schwarzenegger executive produces the new series along with Skydance’s David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Bill Bost; Carolyn Harris will oversee the project for the company.

Schwarzenegger has a longstanding relationship with Skydance having starred in “Terminator Genisys” and “Terminator: Dark Fate” for the indie studio on the feature side, reprising his iconic role of T-800 in the latest installments of the venerable franchise.

The spy drama would mark the first major scripted TV series role for the “Terminator” and “True Lies” star and former California governor. On the unscripted side, he did a one-season stint as the star and executive producer of NBC’s “The Celebrity Apprentice.”

Most recently seen in “Terminator: Dark Fate,” Schwarzenegger stars in the upcoming “Kung Fury II: The Movie” and is attached to reprise his role opposite Danny DeVito and Eddie Murphy in the “Twins” sequel “Triplets,” which is in development. Schwarzenegger is repped by UTA and attorney Patrick Knapp.

Santora currently serves as EP/showrunner on Amazon Prime’s upcoming series “Jack Reacher,” based on Lee Child’s bestselling book series, produced by Amazon Studios, Skydance TV and Paramount TV Studios. Santora is also currently an executive producer/showrunner on “Most Dangerous Game” and “The Fugitive” (both for Quibi).

Santora is best known for creating and exec producer/showrunning “Scorpion,” which aired for four seasons on CBS, as well as co-creating and exec producing “Breakout Kings” on A&E. His series credits also include “Prison Break,” “The Sopranos,” “Law & Order,” “The Guardian” and “Lie to Me.” He is repped by the Gotham Group and attorney Patti C. Felker.
