As an Arrested Development movie inches closer to reality and the producers try to corral all of the old cast, one thing you can count on: Will Arnett is ready to reunite. "Arrested Development has such a special place in my heart,” he tells EW.com, “and I can’t wait to strap that fake hand back on and fight the seal once and for all—wait, which guy did I play?" (For the uninitiated, that’d be highly incompetent illusionist GOB.) Fans have been clamoring for another round of Bluth family dysfunction ever since the critically lauded show was cancelled in 2006 (and the finale slyly hinted that the story could continue on the big screen). ”It’ll be fun to get back together with everybody and work on it,” says Arnett. “It’s been so long now, we almost have to do it. It’s like we have to finish the joke.” What details can he spill about the project? “I’m sure I’m not speaking out of turn when I say Christmas Day ’09, 12:01 a.m. is the first show,” he shares. “We’re opening on—this is unprecedented—13,000 screens. This is going to be mind-blowing. We start shooting this summer. It’s going to be directed by Obama’s Secretary of the Treasury, I’m not sure how [series creator] Mitch Hurwitz feels about that. Part of the Wall Street bailout is for our budget. We’re getting a bill and a half; because we were a business considered under duress because of the cancellation, blah blah blah, we met federal requirements. And the box office is guaranteed by the FDIC.” Sounds like money in the bank.

hey just wondering since i haven’t been following AD news lately, what’s the deal with michael cera?
I am so psyched for this movie to be made!!! One of my favorite quotes from the show is when Gob explains what a trick is http://www.entertonement.com/clips/50952/A-trick-is-what-a%E2%80%A6 I would pay anything to be able to see an Arrested Development Movie.
AD and the Chappelle show are two of the funniest shows I’ve seen in my life.
All I want to see: the entire family clucking like chickens.
And that’s why… I always leave a note.
Watch full movies here! http://missedashow.com/

Michael:Youll burn through this money and have nothing…you give a man a fish he’ll eat for a night, you teach a man to fish….
Gob: He’ll wanna use your yacht, and i dont want this thing to smell like fish, im burning through my future for it.
I cannot wait for this movie to be made.
I’m so sick of little hints that there possibly might be a movie sometime in the future. Either officially announce that the movie is a go or that it will never happen so I can try to form some sort of life outside of the Bluths.
It is about time this movie was made. Hopefully Michael Cera will get off his high horse and head back to the show that made him famous.
