Keep this man working!

Just because Wal-Merica didn't 'get' Arrested Development doesn't mean we shouldn't give more work to Jason Bateman! And so people HAVE.

He'll be rockin' in the upcoming action-psycho-fest Smokin' Aces and then Peter Berg's hot little Middle-Eastern action flick 'The Kingdom' with Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner & Chris Cooper will also feature a hairier-than-normal Bateman (not quite Teen Wolf Too hairy). Then, in the upcoming slapstick comedy starring Amanda Peet & Zach Braff, he'll play a man in a wheelchair competing for the girl. Both of which look AWESOME.

And if those two weren't enough, he'll star in the upcoming Will Smith superhero drama 'Tonight, She Comes' (yeah, suck-ass title), which has a pretty sweet premise:

"Smith plays a down-and-out superhero who has a bad image with the public because he causes a lot of collateral damage while he solves crime, and he's an alcoholic. Bateman plays a corporate public relations consultant, who after being rescued by Smith tries to repay him by revamping his image. But while Bateman is trying to repair Smith's reputation the superhero is secretly romancing Bateman's alluring wife played by Theron." (courtesy of SuperHeroHype.com)
