John Slattery to appear in multiple episodes of Season 4.
Mad Men's John Slattery will soon be joining the upcoming fourth season of Arrested Development.
While TVLine, who broke the story, notes that Slattery's character has yet to be revealed, they also add that the actor will be appearing in multiple episodes. Slattery will play one of several new characters to appear alongside the original cast.
Said executive producer Ron Howard of the show's return, "[Series creator] Mitch [Hurwitz] isn't trying to recreate something. It's been away for a while, and part of the fun that Mitch has been mining and exploiting is, what's new to discover about these people? What’s delightfully unchanged? He and the writing staff and the actors have a fantastic sense of that. They're pretty brazen, pretty bold and fearless. That's what made the show into something that fans really kept alive."
As announced back in November, Arrested Development will be returning with 10 new episodes to premiere all at once on Netflix sometime next year.
