Mitch Hurwitz’ Deal Closes For ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT: THE MOTION PICTURE??
I am – Hercules!!
“Arrested Development” mastermind Mitch Hurwitz has reportedly closed a deal to write and direct a big-screen version of the sitcom “Arrested Development” for Fox Searchlight.
For those unfamiliar, the TV show followed a wacky family of real estate developers.
No word yet on whether the project will be able to lure back big-deal movie star Michael Cera (“Superbad,” “Juno”), who played George Michael Bluth.

the Scott Pilgrim role, dagnamnit!
-
hes got a good head on his shoulders. I'm pretty damn excited about this.
-
I loved this show. The entire cast was amazing and it was very cleverly written. But where would a film take us. Would it resolve the whole scenario with george Sr.?
-
Now: This. Next: Hoverboards.
-
This movie will be absolutely PHENOMENAL!!
I can't wait!!
(Michael Cera BETTER do it. Without this show he would be nothing) -
You can't do it without George Michael. You can't do it without ANY of them. One of the few shows where absolutely no one in the principle cast is expendable.
I expect copious Barry Zuckercorn, Stan Sitwell, and an appearance from J. Walter Weatherman. -
people are all worried that michael cera and even jason bateman have become too big of stars, but hell, it's only a good thing if the studios pay them a bit more to exploit their names to get people into the theatres. I want this to be as successful as possible.
-
I'm so happy I could kiss you on the -bleep-!!!
-
He owes it to Arrested.
-
Do it!
-
If they can get everyone in the cast from George Michael to Jay Walter Weatherman.
-
Damn you firefox. How you mislead me!
-
The 2nd coming of Christ (Arrested Development)!
-
Seeing as the actor who played him died last year.
-
Not who, I meant...her?
-
It's all about Funke to me.
-
COME ON!!!!
-
They need to get Scott Baio back too!
-
wow...damn...
You have no idea how sad I am to hear that. Michael will have to teach George Michael a lesson a different way... -

He could always put it in his brownie...

What did he do? He was in Superbad, had a supporting role in Juno and...what else? Am I missing sarcasm here?

"Enjoy a free round of drinks at Subway, courtesy of Tony Wonder!"
-
He better make a cameo.
"Look at us...crying like a couple of girls."
"I'm not crying." -
Every time Mitch Hurwitz mentioned this I thought he was just blowing smoke up the collective ass of our's. I love the show, but I just can't imagine an executive somewhere--ANYWHERE--saying "This smells like money!"
Hell, maybe Brian Fuller will get that Pushing Daisys movie. And next year HBO will produce a new season of Deadwood. Well, maybe the first. -
Taste it!
-
I honestly don't know what they'll do with a movie, but I'm there. AD isn't a show I can picture as a movie, but if any sitcom deserved to become a movie, it's this one.
-
Man, this website needs an edit function.
-
That is all.
-
how dang good this durned show is. Please, get them all back.
-
...Yourself, over how awesome this is. I just blue myself.
-
Bring on more "Girls with low self-esteem."
-
I read about it weeks ago on Bob Loblaw's Law Blog.
-
The show was brilliant, the movie will be. Better come back, Cera!

I don't get the people who don't see how this could work as a movie. The humor in the series is so layered, I actually think the longer format could serve it better than tv. I wonder if it'll pick up right at the end of the series, with Lucille in prison...

I want to be a pussy see Love Indubitably in Wee Britain.

I just want my kids back.
-
talentless punk. I hate all those Apatow Jr. kids they all suck. He's probably too bratty to even sign up for the film.
-
Just wanted to write that. This is more exciting than when they announced that Lucas was finally starting work on the Prequels (and hopefully will be a much better result).

... the O.C. Disorder.
-
This and Curb, Best shows ever.
-
But it'd be hard to imagine him even considering passing if the script is good. But he's being the political version of all the worst talkbackers -- are they just going to fuck it up? I don't think he actively DOESN'T want to make the movie.
-
Best news of the day! (The movie. Not the banger)
-
. . . specially since he's just doing George Michael, the only character he's capable of, in all of his other movies.
-
When did Cera say he wouldn't do it? Get that punk back in the banana stand where he belongs!
-
I'm not sure they can make it without Bob Loblaw's Law Blog. "We are going to find this......HERMANO!!!"
-
"Just the fact that you still call it that shows me you aren't ready"

Carl Weathers, Barry Zuckercorn, Franklin, and Andy Richter and all his brothers.
