SNL's Kristen Wiig Joins Arrested Development

Kristen Wiig

Saturday Night Live alum and Bridesmaids star Kristen Wiig is joining Season 4 of Arrested Development, Vulture reports.

Wiig, who co-starred alongside Development star Jason Bateman in Extract and Paul, will portray a young Lucille Bluth (Jessica Walters).

Who's joining Arrested Development?

It's unclear how many episodes of the dysfunctional family comedy she'll appear in when it is revived by Netflix, but each episode of the new season will focus on a different character from the Bluth family, presumably leading us to believe she'll only appear in the Lucille-centric episode.

Filming is under way for Arrested Development's fourth season, which will consist of 14 episodes that will all premiere on the same day exclusively on Netflix in the spring of 2013.
