Arnett, Hurwitz reuniting for pilot

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 22 (UPI) -- Actor Will Arnett is reuniting with his former "Arrested Development" producers Mitch Hurwitz and Jim Vallely on a pilot for a new U.S. comedy series.

The team previously collaborated on the celebrated, but short lived sit-com "Arrested Development."

The Hollywood Reporter said they have been working on a pilot for an untitled comedy that would cast Arnett as a "rich Beverly Hills jackass who falls in love with a charitable tree-hugging woman who can't stand his lifestyle."

Lionsgate Television is expected to order the pilot, which was written by Hurwitz, Arnett and Vallely, the entertainment industry trade newspaper said.
