The quest to bring Arrested Development to the big screen battles on as contrasting reports fuel speculations that Michael Cera, a since breakout star in hit films like Juno and SuperBad, is holding up development.

According to PopPop Jeffery Tambor and Perez Hilton, Micheal Cera is in- for certain.  “If I have to call him up and say, ‘Get on set right now, young man,’ he’ll be there,” says Tambor. “The movie is going to happen this year, and Michael Cera is on board. Trust me.”

Out lesbian and newlywed Portia  de Rossi has expressed her desire to reprise the role of Lindsay Bluth in the past, exclaiming she, "would love to do a movie for Arrested! But the Portia-portion of the most famous lesbian couple in all the land only added to confusion surrounding the project by saying "the cast are all on board.”

that Cera was waiting to see a script and he thinks the film is, “more hypothetical than people think.”

  And, the show’s creator Mitch Hurwitz replied to rumors that Will Arnett and Michael Cera were holding up development, saying, “I don’t want to talk about who is holding out right now because we might still work that out and I don’t want to pressure anyone through the press,” he said.  “Although I will say that Will Arnett is gung-ho, so there’s a big clue!”

The show's executive producer Ron Howard defended Cera, the originator of George Michael Jr.’s role, explaining the movie and script are not completely green lit just yet, and that “all the actors need to wait for the script.”  But concluded he would be “very surprised” if the project didn’t happen.
