Michael Cera's Doing the Arrested Development Movie, Says Co-Star
Filed under: TV News > Film Flickers > Michael Cera > Jason Bateman
Jeffrey Tambor, the actor who plays Michael Cera's grandpa on the TV cult fave Arrested Development, apparently knows lots of stuff about the TV-to-movie project that we don't!
In a recent interview the guy also known as Pop Pop said the movie is totally happening and Cera as George Michael is for sure.
“If I have to call him up and say, ‘Get on set right now, young man,’ he’ll be there,” says Tambor. “The movie is going to happen this year, and Michael Cera is on board. Trust me.”
This may be news to Cera!
We'll only believe the original George Michael's coming back it if Jason Bateman or Cera himself says it!

george michael and GOB- HYSTERICAL
I am so excited! thank you George senior!
I believe it.
Why wouldn't you believe it, Perez?
Jeffrey Tambor's just as reliable as Jason Bateman.
Jeffrey Tambor is awesome.
Re: Caonkey Cankles dida Crap –
Don't even fucking compare Friends and Arrested Development, idiot.
Friends is the epitome of unfunny; Arrested Development was the best show on television.
Jeffrey Tambor is the writer and producer, so you should definitely believe him more than jason bateman, perez.
Re: Caonkey Cankles dida Crap – uuuh, excuse me? you obviously never watched arrested development. it would be nothing like the "friends reunion" because A. its much better and B. it was cancelled so all of us arrested development cult followers desperately need our fix.
Re: harrybalsac – I sfsf luved this show too..
bring it back..
Re: Long Dong Connery –

OK… nobody watched the show and they think people will watch the movie why?????????

i love
of course he is!
I am so fucking sick of this shit…who the fuck does Michael Cera think he is anyway? He's found a niche playing dorky teenagers…hey Mike, how long do you think that will last? Do the fucking movie, collect the fucking paycheck, and extend your 15 minutes of fame.
I have Pop Pop in the attic.
The mere fact that you're calling it that tells me you're not ready.
AD is the funniest show in the history of the universe.
perez, you shut the hell up. you obviously have never ever seen arrested development so don't act all like you know what you're talking about
With everything Bateman did for Cera's career, he damn well better do that movie.
i hope he's on board! arrested development is one of my favorite shows!
