LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com): The Bluths are back. At least, that's what Mitch Hurwitz said Sunday. Speaking alongside former cast members of the long-cancelled Fox comedy ''Arrested Development'' at the New Yorker Festival, the creator/executive producer said the show will return for a mini-season of nine or 10 episodes before it's adapted into a feature film.

Series star Will Arnett seconded Hurwitz's pledge on his Twitter feed, @arnettwill, while, er, standing next to co-star Jason Bateman: ''I'm peeing with @batemanjason at the moment ... and we can confirm that we are going to make new AD eps and a movie.''
