“ It is an honor and privilege to work with Genius Brands and POW! Entertainment on this new series and help carry on Stan's creative legacy by introducing this new group of superheroes to preschool children around the world,” commented Schwarzenegger. As per tradition, the animated series will feature a cameo from Lee himself in every episode. Stan Lee is, of course, the former head of Marvel comics and responsible for creating such popular characters as Spider-Man. The series will be written by Deadpool co-creator Fabian Nicieza - meaning a level of wit that will appeal to adults as much as their children. It's hoped that the show, which is aimed at preschoolers, will allow entrance to and guidance through the medium of superheroes. The role was written specifically with Schwarzenegger in mind. Instead of a cop, Schwarzenegger will this time play a retired superhero attempting to guide super-powered youngsters. He will also serve as an executive producer. In a joint production between Stan Lee's POW! Entertainment and Schwarzenegger's Oak Productions, the 71-year-old former Governor will star in Stan Lee's Superhero Kindergarten. Many questioned whether Schwarzenegger would return to the franchise, but Terminator director-turned-producer James Cameron revealed he wouldn't return without him.Īnnounced by Genius Brands International, however, Terminator won't be the only role Schwarzenegger will be returning to. The Tim Miller-directed installment will retcon recent outings from the canon and serve as a direct sequel to the original two. He will next return to his roots in the upcoming Terminator: Dark Fate. The latter saw Schwarzenegger forced to go undercover as a teacher in order to track down a dangerous criminal. Not wanting to be pigeon-holed, the Austrian actor increasingly immersed himself in comedies, including the self-parodying Last Action Hero and the endlessly quotable cult classic Kindergarten Cop.
