I cursed those monkeys running Fox when they canceled one of my favorite shows of all time, Arrested Development but my anger was eased when I heard a movie was being made about my favorite Bluths.
While there were rumblings that Michael Cera, the actor who portrayed George Michael on the show, was the sole member of the original cast saying no to an Arrested Development film, it's recently been announced that he has agreed to sign onto the movie.
While Cera gained fans in Juno and Superbad, if they had to recast George Michael because he had grown too big for his britches, there would be a legion of Arrested Development fans boycotting all of his future movies.
If you're not familiar with the show, you still have time before the movie comes out and can get caught up on Hulu!
Arrested Development is by far one of the greatest TV shows ever made. But I had mixed feelings when I heard about plans for the movie--only because I feel like most TV shows don't translate well to the big screen. And because the show ended on such a perfectly high note. Then again, I can't imagine a movie with this group of people being anything less than hilarious. We shall see! Either way, I'm glad Michael Cera came around.
