Hurwitz Is Working On ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT Script

Here we go again, another round of let’s hear if ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT movie is really going to happen. As a fan of the series, it’s a bit upsetting that all I keep hearing all this time is that the feature is being written and Jason Bateman and Ron Howard seem to be the only ones excited about returning to the Bluth family for the big screen version.
Bateman previously said that the show’s creator Mitch Hurwitz is halfway done writing it and that the movie might arrive in 2011. Hollywood Reporter now said that Mitchell Hurwitz and his co-executive producer James Vallely are working on the screenplay. They are spinning more bizarre encounters for the eccentric, spoiled Bluth family and production might start next Spring. Imagine and Fox Searchlight are producing the film.
Ok, I suppose this gives a little assurance that the Bluth family members will eventually reunite, Hurwitz who won 2 primetime Emmys for AD, had said that he wouldn’t start writing a film unless all the main actors, including Jason Bateman, Michael Cera, David Cross, Will Arnett, Alia Shawkat, Portia de Rossi and Jeffrey Tambor, were committed but Bateman, Cera have been doing extremely well in movies, although Cera is the only one that worries me, he may think he’s too cool and too big now for AD.
