After years of frustratingly vague promises and false starts, the Arrested Development movie is finally getting made—as a plotline on the Arrested Development TV show. Talking to TV Guide’s Will Keck in an affable voice that pushes the plot along, Ron Howard says the upcoming fourth season will make good on the last episode’s final lines of dialogue, when Howard, playing himself, says, “I don’t see it as a series. Maybe a movie,” kicking off seven years of anticipation for a film he’s finally ready to pretend to make. “In the new season, we create a heightened version of Imagine Entertainment,” Howard says of his real-life production company with Brian Grazer, who added, “We talk about what could be our new Da Vinci Code”—a nod to how the Arrested Development movie has involved its own complex series of clues and a certain amount of self-flagellation.
