Jason Bateman has addressed a fan theory that his characters in Ozark and Arrested Development are the same people.
The actor stars in Netflix’s drama Ozark as Marty Byrde, a financial advisor who becomes involved in a money-laundering scheme.
However, some fans theorise that there are intense similarities between Marty and Michael Bluth, Bateman’s character in Arrested Development.
In this theory, Michael is Marty after he has been through a witness protection scheme, with many viewers speculating that Ozark contains a number of Arrested Development Easter eggs.
