Netflix is bringing Arrested Development back for a fifth season in 2018. The entire cast is returning, and it sounds like the scheduling problems that hampered season four won’t be an issue this time.
New Episodes of Arrested Development (Hopefully)
The cast of Arrested Development was together on stage at the New Yorker Festival this weekend, where it was announced that new episodes of the show were being planned, as well as the long-anticipated film.
The big news of the afternoon: If all goes according to plan, the series will return to television in a nine- or ten-episode limited-run series, set to film next summer, with each episode focussing on a single member of the Bluth clan. And series creator Mitchell Hurwitz said that he is halfway through the screenplay for a reunion film and is “eighty per cent” sure it will happen.
