Arrested Development Movie Is A Go, But Will George Michael Be There?

Filed under: Film Flickers > Michael Cera

come-back.jpg

So it looks like the ball is rolling on the Arrested Development movie, but the big question is whether or not its darling, Michael Cera, will sign onto the project.

At the tender age of 20, his star is on the rise, with roles in Superbad and Juno, so co-star Jason Bateman understands, saying, "The guy is 20 years old and I'm sure he doesn't want to screw up this opportunity."

Still!

He better decide soon! Arrested writer and producer Mitch Hurwitz is waiting on the decisions of all the actors to begin working on a silver screen script. If Cera decides not to return, Hurwitz says the film will most likely occur some time after the show left off.

He goes on to joke that the film will be something like "Valkyrie meets Hotel for Dogs."

Hah!

Come on, Michael! It won't be the same without you!

    It won't be the same without George Michael (Though Franklin or Mrs Featherbottom would be a great replacement!)

  25. 25

    WHAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTT George Michael has to come back or it wont be complete, i have talked about this so many times that the movie will only work with the entire cast back together!!!! COME ON GEORGE MICHAEL!!!!! i also feel like this movie could only help his career, right?



  26. 26

    What is he waiting on? This roll can only help him and his pocket book…People LOVED that show…People who were introduced to his deadpan humor in "Superbad" and
    "Juno" will love him in "Arrested Development" even if the movie as a whole sucks…it's a Win-Win for him.



  27. 27

    he is honestly the most beautiful thing i've ever seen.
    he best be in that movie!



  28. 28

    WHAT a douche. i used to be a huge michael cera fan. superbad and arrested are my faves. but juno sucked and nick & norah was even worse. he needs to get his head out of his ass and not ruin this for everyone. he wouldn't even be famous if not for arrested. if he fucks this up, i'll never forgive him.

    Typo Idiot "george michael"….but you're still as beautiful as you are. Let's all excell!



  30. 30

    He has a pretty Gay Smile!!



  31. 31

    Arrested Development is the best freaking show!
    can't wait to see them on the big screen, I just hope they don't end up disappointing us.



  32. 32

    George Michael has to reunite with Maybe! Come on! (I LOVE this show.)



  33. 33

    OMG How could he NOT do this Movie. It would be so incredibly rude. Mitch Hurwitz and Arrested Development gave him his start. ALL his characters since AD have basically BEEN George Michael Bluth, just in different situations. How crappy would it be for him to turn his back on the whole Arrested Development Cast and Crew. I used to LOVE him, but I'm so disappointed. Selfish.



  34. 34

    Fuckin' A, Cera! Arrested Development made you find your George Michael–the same character you do in every movie, well I may add, but it's still the same character! Don't do Lucille and the Bluth boys wrong by getting all uppity now! And Maeby….I want you and Maeby to make illegal babies together!

    NOOO!
    Without that show, he wouldn't be anything.

    He better do it or… well I'm not going to watch it either way.

  38. tetzy says – reply to this


    38

    Smartest sitcom ever put on TV.



  39. 39

    HE BETTER DO IT!



  40. 40

    Maybe he's holding out for more money? Kim Cattrall was like that for the SATC movie initially. He would have to do it, though — not nice to bite the hand that feeds! And it just wouldn't be right without him.



  41. 41

    It's in HIS interest to be part of this movie. He plays the same character (boring and insipid) in every movie. It's the material that's propelled is career, not his one-note characterizations. The Arrested Development movie is a sure-fire thing and he's an idiot for not recognizing it. He was the least interesting character on the show and it will do just fine without him if need be.



  42. 42

    NEW interviews with cast and crew of Arrested Dev. re: Movie Rumors.

    Search on youtube or funnyordie…..



  43. 43

    he has said he is down in the past
    i know this cause it was on tmz MONTHS ago and he said he is all for it



  44. 44

    PEREZ WE NEED MORE MICHAEL CERA POSTS!!!! WE LOVE HIM!!!!!!



  45. 45

    He's a real cutie!!



  46. 46

    Isn't the bigger question: Will Martin Mull sign on for it, or does his new show, THAT'S NOT FAKE, take priority? As funny as it looks (www.thatsnotfake.com), AD isn't the same without Parmesan!



  47. 47

    If he doesn't sign on for this movie the quote that will fill his head is, "I've made a huge mistake."
    Then he will spend his days manning the banana stand and wonder what could have been!

    (I love this show so much I hope he will do it)



  48. 48

    What? No George Michael? But everyone loves George Michael!



  49. 49

    Michael, I know you and I know you will love this experience and don't want to let a lot of people down. You are an amazing worker and will love doing this movie.

    george michael NEEDS to be in the arrested development movie! he was at the heart of all the delicious, awkward tension throughout the show

    Re: Tamarind – I *heart* Martin Mull too!
