Finally, an
Arrested Development movie is in the offing.
"It's in the works," costar
Jason Bateman
told MSNBC's Keith Olbermann last night. "The grown-ups are trying to work out the numbers."
He also told the
Times of London the movie version - slated for a 2009 release - will have a different feel than the TV series: "When it was on TV, if you missed one word the whole third act could be blown for you. And TV is a different experience. You come home and you've got to finish a call so you miss the first ten minutes or you get snacky and you go to the fridge and you miss another two minutes, so it's a different experience to film." -
