Jun 28, 2023 · Most of the show’s success lies in its super-talented cast. Here are the top 10 cast members of Arrested Development.
- Jason Bateman (Michael Bluth) Jason Bateman is perhaps the most recognizable name within Arrested Development, and the main character, with his role as Michael Bluth.
- Alia Shawkat (Maeby Funke) Alia Shawkat really does impress throughout Arrested Development. She's incredibly dry with her delivery and the manner in which Maeby judges her entire family is hilarious.
- Portia De Rossi (Lindsay Bluth Funke) Playing the mother of Maeby was Portia de Rossi, who showcased her comedic ability in this show. She was the over the top Lindsay Bluth Funke, who was incredibly confident in herself, despite also being very lazy at the same time.
- David Cross (Tobias Funke) Tobias Funke is the husband to Lindsay, despite the fact that they aren't really romantically connected for the majority of the show.
- Tobias Funke. Tobias Funke is the MVP of Arrested Development. David Cross plays his character in a way that comes across as one of the stupidest yet most bewildering people ever seen on TV.
- George Oscar "GOB" Bluth, Jr. The eldest son of Lucille and George, yet also their biggest disappointment. GOB is lazy, entitled, and often steals from those around him to maintain a lifestyle that he could never afford.
- George Bluth, Sr. George Bluth was the patriarch, the man who brought about the financial ruin of the family through his business dealings with various unfriendly forces, committing what he described as "light treason."
- Lucille Bluth. The dearly departed Jessica Walter became an internet sensation for her role as Lucille Bluth, the matriarch of the family. Often cold and unfriendly towards those closest to her, she pitted her children against one another on more than one occasion, often using them to make her own schemes come to fruition.
- Jason Bateman. In the years immediately following the end of Arrested Development’s OG run, Bateman appeared in a number of big-screen comedies including Juno, Identity Thief and both Horrible Bosses movies.
- Will Arnett. Though Gob Bluth is a hard act to follow, Arnett has gone on to play some similarly iconic roles since the series ended, including Batman in the Lego Movie franchise (a gravelly-voiced role that he arguably auditioned for years earlier in Arrested Development’s “club sauce” scene).
- Portia De Rossi. De Rossi was already well known prior to Arrested Development for playing Nelle Porter in Ally McBeal, and after AD ended its initial run on Fox, she made appearances in a number of other shows including Nip/Tuck and Scandal.
- Jessica Walter (1941-2021) Walter had already had a long and storied career before being cast in Arrested Development, including a lead role in Clint Eastwood’s 1971 directorial debut, Play Misty For Me.
