Are you excited about the return of Arrested Development? You’re not the only one, obviously, as passionate fans prompted Netflix to put together a new season of the series. And two of the more passionate fans – Jeff Smith and Neil Lieberman – even went as far as directing the Arrested Development Documentary Project, a behind-the-scenes film all about the TV series.
The documentary film will include exclusive interviews with all of the cast members as well as the show’s creators and producers. The film also explores the “intense relationship between the fans and the show,” featuring interviews with fans all over the country.
The Arrested Development Documentary Project will be released in theaters and on digital platforms on May 3, 2013 via FilmBuff, VHX, and Tugg.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with Tugg and VHX on the release of this film,” said Julie La’Bassiere, FilmBuff’s Head of Marketing. “Creating wide accessibility to the film through Tugg as well as the full range of digital platforms will give Jeff and Neil’s documentary a robust 360° release that meets the demands of audiences waiting breathlessly for all things Arrested Development.”
Added directors Jeff Smith and Neil Lieberman: “We are, of course, huge fans of Arrested Development and made this film for everyone who loves the show as much as we do. With FilmBuff releasing the film with such a well-rounded strategy, it makes it so easy for people see the movie in a theater or on a digital platform. We can’t wait to share it with the rest of the fans.”
