Media Maven Inside Scoop: Arrested Development Movie Plot Revealed!
The main plot of the picture is going to be the old "movie within a movie" device-- as suggested by Ron Howard in the show's finale, the story of the Bluth family sounds like a good movie...and so it is! As we rejoin the Bluths, we find them as consultants on a movie about their lives. The main action of the A.D. movie will be our Bluths interacting with the actors playing them in the Bluth movie. So for example, Jason Bateman, as Michael Bluth, will be interacting with Mr. Z (its way too ...
