Yes, you heard that right. The remix was just released, and Season 5 might be sooner than you think...
In reporting about Arrested Development for Heavy.com, I stumbled across a very interesting story by Variety. The article is about how Jeffrey Tambor is returning for Season 5, and it was released this morning, after the Season 4 remix was released. But there's an interesting little tidbit hidden in the story. When writing about Tambor's return, the reporter adds:
"A Netflix spokesperson confirmed the news about Arrested (Jeffrey Tambor returning to Season 5), which is set to return to the streaming service later this month."
A fan on Reddit says they messaged the reporter on Twitter and the reporter confirmed that Season 5 is dropping in May (but the Redditor didn't provide proof, so it's up to you if you believe this or not.)
Some fans think this means Season 5 will release on May 5 (tomorrow!) Others think it will be Mother's Day, May 13, based on some cryptic tweets from Arrested Development's Twitter account. And still other fans are thinking the last Sunday in May, to coincide with the season's last release date.
But it looks like we might be seeing the new season this month...
WOW! :D
I also learned some other interesting facts about Season 5, which you can check out in my story on Heavy, linked above. Are you going to keep a close eye on Netflix in the coming days and weeks? I know I am.
