From IMDB:
'Arrested Development' Film Planned?
Actor Jason Bateman has confirmed plans are underway for a movie version of cancelled TV sitcom Arrested Development. A rumored
meeting between the star and series creator Mitch Hurwitz late last year fuelled speculation a big-screen adaptation of the cult show
was in the pipeline. And now the Juno star has confirmed the cast has received calls from executives asking if they would be interested
in reviving their roles once the ongoing Hollywood writers strike is over. He tells E! News, "I can confirm that a round of sniffing has
started. Any talk is targeting a post-strike situation, of course. I think, as always, that it's a question of whether the people with the
money are willing to give our leader, Mitch Hurwitz, what he deserves for his participation. And I can speak for the cast when I say
our fingers are crossed."
