Are we closer to a new season of Arrested Development? Deadline reports star Jason Bateman has signed on for a fifth season of the Netflix TV series.
After being cancelled by FOX in 2006, Netflix revived the comedy for a fourth season in 2013. The cast includes Bateman, Will Arnett, Jeffrey Tambor, Jessica Walter, Michael Cera, Portia de Rossi, Tony Hale, David Cross, and Alia Shawkat.
Reports of a fifth season of Arrested Development have been around since season four debuted four years ago. However, there now seems to be some real development. Last week, Bateman tweeted that he’s officially signed on for a new season of the Netflix comedy:
Look very probable I'm going to put some miles on the Stair Car this summer. Just officially signed on to more ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT today.

Perhaps the Bluths will be back in business soon.
