Yes, it’s the final countdown — 15 fresh episodes of “Arrested Development” will go live simultaneously at 12:01am PT on May 26th. Netflix has released a trailer for the new “season,” though some cast members have been reluctant to call the upcoming installment that because it’s structured in a very different way from the series that ran on Fox from 2003 to 2006, using a format intended to take advantage of the streaming platform and to manage the costs and scheduling issues of the in demand actors.
The trailer looks… pretty damn good (if also a little rough, like it was cut together from footage that wasn’t all finished), though it’s mainly intended to serve as a reminder that all of the distinctive characters will be back, from the Bluths to Judy Greer’s Kitty Sanchez. Check it out below.
