Michael Cera Finally Wants to be ‘Arrested’

A big screen version of ‘Arrested Development’ has been talked about ever since the TV series was cancelled in 2006.   Everyone seemed to be on board.   Everyone, that is, except for Michael Cera.   Well, fans of the show can finally rejoice.

Inside sources close to the production say Cera has finally agreed to do the feature film project.

According to insiders, the movie may go as early as the end of the year, if they can put it together in time. Michael Hurwitz is writing and directing the script, and Fox Searchlight is the studio.

As far as any other information goes, it seems the producers are keeping tight lips.   Ron Howard spoke with Ryan Seacrest on the red carpet before this past Sunday’s Oscars, when he had this to say about the project:

“It’s looking very much like we’re going to make [the movie], but we’ve now been asked to stop offering any details. It’s cloaked in a little mystery, but it’s looking good.”
