David Cross promises “meta, meta layers of hilarity” in new “Arrested Development”

IFC recently had a chance to chat with David Cross, while he was promoting his movie It’s A Disaster during the Los Angeles Film Festival.

“It’s a character that I love and a great group of people that I look forward to working with again, and it’s a Mitch Hurwitz script so it’s going to be fucking meta, meta layers of hilarity,” he said.

“Mitch and I talked about it the last time we were together, which was in Vegas for this Netflix thing, and told me some of the ideas,” Cross teased. “I can’t say anything for obvious reasons and I won’t say anything but they’re all great. I’m really, really chomping at the bit to do this stuff.”

Even though he can’t say what actually will happen in the new season, IFC did manage to get Cross to talk about which actors he’d like to work with more in the new episodes. “I would think that for comedic purposes, I would like to see Tobias and Lucille,” Cross said. “I think just writing-wise, comedic-wise, I think Tobias and Lucille would be funny.” As for secondary characters, He  mentioned that he would also like to see Kitty Sanchez return to the show.
