Time for our bi-weekly (and unfortunately last) update on the heavily anticipated, on-and-off Arrested Development movie. It’s “not going to happen.”

David Cross spoke with TV Squad for his upcoming comedy special, David Cross: Bigger and Blackerer and had this to say:

Way too much time it’s been (since the show ended). I mean, there’s so many people involved. Everyone’s doing their own thing, you know. And everybody’s aged. It’s just not going to happen. I’m sure I speak for everybody when I say we’d love for it to happen, we’d love to work on it, but just I don’t think… not going to happen.

Quite a shame, but it’s been increasingly unlikely as time has gone on. If you want to see Cross and AD co-star Will Arnet together they are developing a new show in the UK, The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret that will air on IFC in the US this October. Cross says “Yes. It’s gonna be good. I’m very, very happy with the scripts.”

Are you upset the Arrested Development movie is dead?
