Jason Bateman Covers 'GQ' Style Bible April 2013
Jason Bateman suits up on the cover of GQ‘s Style Bible issue for April 2013.
Here is what the 44-year-old actor had to share with the mag:
On reuniting with the Arrested Development cast for a new season: “It was something that, every month or two since the end of the show, there would be an update about the progress [about some kind of reunion]. So it wasn’t that big of a shock when it happened, because it always seemed like it was a half a year from happening anyway. But when we did finally all come together on the set, it was pretty neat. I just don’t know how many examples there are of that�”where people get to come back and do a reunion-type situation and have it not be a bit of a Hail Mary, careerwise. That show launched a lot of our careers and everyone is doing great, so to come back together while things are going well is really a fortunate situation. Everybody had to be big boys about not making it financially impossible.”
On doing a talk show one day: “Without getting too specific about it, because I can’t, I’ve thought seriously about it as recently as last year. Having just come back from doing a week of talk shows last week [to promote Identity Thief], I was talking to [my wife] Amanda about, in twenty years�”when the girls go to college and we can finally move to New York, which is what I’ve been wanting to do forever�”if television will have me, I would love to do that. Regis [Philbin] retired at what, 80? So in twenty years I’ll be 64. To host a talk show then, that would be a fun way to do the last bit.”
