Netflix in Talks for Another Season of ‘Arrested Development’
Netflix, the largest subscription video-streaming service, is in talks for another season of “Arrested Development,” said Brian Grazer, co-chairman of the production company, Imagine Entertainment.
“We are in conversations with them to do another,” Mr. Grazer said in an interview yesterday with Bloomberg Television at the Allen & Co. conference in Sun Valley, Idaho. “They are interested in doing that.”
CEO Reed Hastings has called “Arrested Development” and other “Netflix originals” integral to his strategy of transforming the company from a purveyor of rerun programming into a web-based television network offering a mix of Hollywood movies and new shows, comparable to Time Warner’s HBO.
