TVLine has reported that star Jason Bateman has officially decided to return to the banana stand for Season 5 of the cult hit comedy, Arrested Development.

Yesterday the star tweeted the news and alluded to the fact that shooting on the fifth season should begin this summer.

Though producers have been working to procure deals with the main cast of the show for some time, Season 5 has yet to receive an official greenlight from Netflix.

Arrested Development centers around Michael Bluth (Jason Bateman) and his eccentric family comprised of his son George Michael (Michael Cera), his father George Bluth Sr. (Jeffrey Tambor), his mother Lucille (Jessica Walter), his brothers George Oscar Bluth II (Will Arnett), Buster Bluth (Tony Hale) and sister Lindsay Funke (PORTIA DE ROSSI), and Lindsay's husband Tobias (David Cross) and their daughter Maeby (Alia Shawkat).
