Gob Bluth was difficult to cast, says Russo brothers

comicbook.com —

The Russo brothers, known for directing Avengers films, discussed their early work on "Arrested Development" in a recent interview. They revealed that casting Gob Bluth was particularly challenging due to Will Arnett's history of failed pilots. Joe Russo noted that Arnett was cast just a week before filming began, as studios were hesitant about his past. They also mentioned that casting Jason Bateman was difficult. The brothers reflected on their unconventional path to success in the entertainment industry. Their experience on "Arrested Development" and "Community" helped them transition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Russos are set to direct "Avengers: Doomsday" and "Avengers: Secret Wars" in the coming months.
