Bateman Talks ‘Arrested Development’ Movie
Check out this short interview with Jason Bateman on the new Arrested Development movie.
ComingSoon.net got the update on the “Development” developments from Bateman:
ComingSoon,net: Will it be a relief when you actually start filming the “Arrested Development” movie so that people will stop asking you about it?
Jason Bateman: I don’t mind talking about it! I’m as big a fan of it as they are. So I feel sort of fortunate that I’m able to give them information on it. I would want them to give me information on it if they had it. I can say that we’re looking better than ever. There are just a few more conversations to be had with some cast members to see if they want to be a part of it. Once we get the head count we’ll be able to go forward with it and hopefully start shooting in the summer.
CS: Is the story already on paper?
Bateman: I don’t think so. I know that Mitch has a couple of ideas, but he’s really waiting to nail it down until he knows exactly who’s going to be involved.
CS: Do you see having Michael Cera and your relationship in film as something crucial? I thought that was one of the more important parts of the show.
Bateman: Sure. It’s not obviously my decision to make. It’ll be Mitch’s, but there are so many different ways to go with it just based on it being an ensemble. I can’t wait to see what he cooks up.
If the movie is half as good as the show I’ll be there.

The tagline of the new Arrested Development Movie should be “Finally”. It’s true! Mitch Hurwitz is writing and directing the new Arrested Development Movie. The only person I believe who is not fully on board yet is Michael Cera. But I think once everyone else signs on he will follow suit!
