The “Arrested Development” movie has been back in the news again. It’s a project that’s up and down every few months so we’ve lost interest. One day it’s a “go,” the next day that talk is apparently “premature,” and back and forth like that on and one. Hopes are brought up, hopes are dashed.
Just this week Jeffrey Tambor (the patriarch of the beloved and now-canceled Fox comedy) said the film was green lit, but Ron Howard (the exec-producer on the original TV show and its uncredited narrator)was a bit more pragmatic and said there was no script yet.
Well, someone has finally noticed our handiwork. A source close to the project tells us that a script does exist and is on Fox exec desks. However, whether that’s a first draft and needs lots of polish is another thing. “A film is coming,” they tell us. “…Eventually.”
Still not holding our breaths, but it does sound like some progress.
