• BREAKING: Arrested Development movie still not dead.

  You can't keep a good Bluth down. Our very own Jeff Otto, fresh from his exclusive interview with Arrested Development star Jason Bateman at the press day for Bateman's new flick Juno, called in with the exciting news that the prospect of an AD movie is still very much a possibility. Bateman relayed the encouraging news to after a weekend meeting with series creator Mitch Hurwitz.

  The latest statement comes on the heels of our August 24th report, in which Bateman remarked that a big-screen Bluth reunion "is certainly on the table."

  Michael Cera, Bateman's fellow Arrested Development castmember and the co-star of Juno, indicated that he'd be game for an AD movie as well.

• The rise of Jason Bateman

  For those of us who remember back when Jason Bateman was all teen heartthrobby on Valerie, his virtual disappearance from all things Hollywood was terribly depressing to say the least.

  But in recent years, he's been cropping up again--in Arrested Development, The Ex, Dodgeball, etc. Well, now it seems one of our favorite '80s stars is finally hitting his comeback stride. Not only will Bateman appear in the upcoming buzz-heavy movies, The Kingdom, Juno, and Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium, but he also just signed on to costar with Edward Norton and Brad Pitt in their next project. 

  State of Play stars Norton as a congressman implicated in the death of his girlfriend and Pitt as his former campaign manager. Bateman will play one of the reporters on the story.

  Now that is one good-looking bunch of hombres. Can we sign up for the junket now?

• Bateman: Arrested Development movie "not dead yet."

  Ever since Arrested Development's premature demise, fans of the short-lived, critically acclaimed series have held out hope that the beloved comedy might somehow resurface, whether as a series on another network or as a feature film.

  "That is certainly on the table and not dead yet; I just don't know when the right time will be," Arrested Development star Jason Bateman revealed today in an exclusive interview with ReelzChannel.com, adding that the surging careers of fellow castmembers Michael Cera and Will Arnett could help the effort. "Maybe by virtue of us doing well, it makes the idea of a re-visit -- whether it be in a movie or whatever -- a little bit more of a viable scenario. Because if none of us had careers after Arrested Development, it would kind of reek of 'Oh, these poor people couldn't let it go,' or 'They need to make a check.'"

  Bateman has several high-profile film projects on the horizon, including Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium and Juno. His latest movie, The Kingdom, opens on September 28th.
