Jeffrey Tambor is the lead on the Amazon series Transparent, Jessica Walter is a part of the voice cast of Archer, Will Arnett voices the lead on Netflix’s BoJack Horseman and has a variety of TV and film projects in the works, Tony Hale has a major role of HBO’s Veep, and other cast members like Jason Bateman, Portia de Rossi, Michael Cera and Alia Shawkat are all hard at work on television and movie projects that Arrested Development would have to work around.
Even though we’ve been eagerly waiting to hear about Season 5 of Arrested Development hitting Netflix, it does make a lot of sense that it would take some heavy work to get things going.
Everyone in the main cast is busy as hell, and working around their schedules would be a major issue when it comes to planning the filming of the show.
