The 40-year-old Arrested Development star says he can't get enough of his sweet daughter: “I just like to throw her around. She's a real good snuggler and she likes to give kisses and hugs. And her neck smells fantastic! You...
Arrested Development Forget Scientology or Heaven’s Gate. Today, the biggest cult in our country may very well be the teeming masses anxiously awaiting the return of Arrested Development . After years of rumors and dashed hopes, it seems the beloved TV show will finally be reincarnated, this time on the big screen. But don’t break out your Cornballers yet: the film isn’t set to hit...
What is the deal with spending twenty-four thousand bucks so people could get three thousand or so bucks to purchase a new car? Arrested Development, that late great satire of television show is... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]
Sick of hearing news about an ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT film that never actually happens? Well How 'bout if a director is onboard' AND one who knows that stuff better than anyone? A weekend event on "The Art of Storytelling" in Austin, Texas saw AD creator Michael Hurwitz and Opie himself Ron Howard confirm what most were expecting, that Hurwitz will be directing from his own script....
Saturday saw not one but two separate special events with Mitchell Hurwitz take place in Austin, Texas and luckily I had remote ears attending both. The first was a panel discussion called "The Art of Storytelling," also featuring Ron Howard and Steve Zaillian, and the second was the clearly-titled "Conversation With Mitchell Hurwitz." Both saw some talk of the upcoming Arrested...
If you’re saying to yourself, “What could be better than one Michael Cera?”, we have the answer: two! Of course, we understand if you think the stuttery, “Arrested Development” wunderkind is a bit overexposed lately. But don’t roll your eyes--you’d be wrong to dismiss this film. Cera’s birdlike awkwardness is perfect for the part of gawky, virginal nerd...
I officially declare this the year of Kristen Bell . She's everywhere lately, proving there's a lot more to her than the soothing voice of Gossip Girl , so it's only natural that she'd come out of the shadows of voiceover work — and in a big way. The Veronica Mars star will be seen in a handful of new movies this season, starting with Couples Retreat , which opened this weekend, and co-stars...
We've all heard rumors about whether or not the former FOX TV show, Arrested Development, would get to step up to the big screen...but as of today, nearly 4 years after the show was cancelled, it seems that there are still "developments" being made.
We finally have concrete news about the Arrested Development movie, namely that creator Mitch Hurwitz is developing the script. He's working with one of the show's executive producers, James Vallely , on the screenplay, and Hurwitz has been named the director, according to a new Reuters report. Now, we have been on this story for well over a year now, and the headline is pretty much always the same....
After more than two years of start-and-stops, it finally looks like Arrested Development, the TV cult-com that launched poster geek Michael Cera’s career, will get a second life on the big screen. Mitchell Hurwitz, who in 2003 created the critically adored Fox comedy about the hilariously damaged Bluth family, is co-writing the screenplay for a [...]
Searching the JoBlo archives, I've found that we've done a lot of rumor reporting on the "is-it-happening?" ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT feature over the past few years, whether it's Jason Bateman saying “full steam ahead” or Michael Cera countering with “not so fast.” But now, without a doubt, unless some cosmic disaster strikes, everyone is on board and...
It's getting to the point where I feel a little silly writing every last little word about the potential Arrested Development movie that comes down the wire. But that's what we do, right? So here it is: there is...will be...a script for an Arrested Development movie. Soon. So very, very soon. Maybe. If things go well. THR reports the sky-rending news that Mitch Hurwitz has begun work on a script with...
Well lookie here... the trades have finally confirmed what the blogosphere has been reporting for probably close to a year now: an Arrested Development feature film is actually in the works! According to The Hollywood Reporter, a screenplay is finally being written by series creator Mitchell Hurwitz and co-executive producer James Vallely, now that all of the primary cast members are on board (yes,...
We've run numerous Arrested Development stories since the series was canceled in 2006, and you can probably file this one in the same land of "Yes, sometime soon!" But it never hurts to keep fueling the fan fire, and remind Fox that we'd really really like the Bluths to return. It might be closer than we all think as according to The Hollywood Reporter , Mitch Hurwitz and James Vallely are...
