Following its initial three seasons, the quest for more “Arrested Development” has been a long road. The promise of more episodes eventually blossomed into the non-linear fourth season that debuted on Netflix two years ago and talks of a follow-up film soon emerged afterward but have yet to materialize. That all might be out the window now as series producer Brian Grazer says that more episodes of the Bluth Family’s adventures are on the way.
“I love Arrested Development, but it was never a huge thing,” Grazer said on Grantland‘s “B.S. Report.” “But people are loyal to it, and we’re going to do another 17 episodes. So stay tuned for Arrested Development.”
No official word on if these additional episodes will air on Netflix or another outlet but check back here for more details as we learn them. You can check out the video featuring Grazer below and hear his comments at the 24:30 mark.
“Arrested Development” centers around Michael Bluth (Jason Bateman) and his eccentric family comprised of his son George Michael (Michael Cera), his father George Bluth Sr. (Jeffrey Tambor), his mother Lucille (Jessica Walter), his brothers George Oscar Bluth II (Will Arnett), Buster Bluth (Tony Hale) and sister Lindsay Funke (Portia de Rossi), and Lindsay’s husband Tobias (David Cross) and their daughter Maeby (Alia Shawkat).
