Arrested Development back on TV and the big screen?

Finally! Great news for Arrested Development fans.

Hurwitz said the new TV series could perhaps be broadcast in late 2012, while adding that “this isn’t my decision”. Bateman later tweeted that the film would probably be released in early 2013. 

“We don’t completely own the property, there are business people involved and studios and that kind of thing,” Hurwitz added, saying the show’s creative team were “80% of the way to the answer”.The new Arrested Development TV series may not be broadcast by the Fox network, which was the show’s original home. 

Co-producers 20 Century Fox TV and Imagine TV are said to have had talks with video-on-demand service Netflix and cable broadcaster Showtime about distributing the new episodes, according to Deadline Hollywood.
