So, you're curious about Michael Cera's age in Arrested Development, huh? Let's dive in, shall we?

Michael Cera's Blossoming Career

Michael Cera, our favorite awkward teen, burst onto the scene in the early 2000s. He was just a kid, barely a teenager, when he started making waves in Hollywood. You might remember him from Juno or Superbad, but let's talk about where it all began - Arrested Development.

Arrested Development: The Early Days

Cera joined the cast of Arrested Development in 2003, when he was just a fresh-faced 14-year-old. He played the lovable, yet often misguided, George Michael Bluth. Can you believe it? Fourteen! I know, right? It feels like just yesterday he was our favorite middle school crush.

Now, you might be thinking, "But Arrested Development ran for three seasons! How old was he by the end?" Well, grab your snacks, 'cause we're about to find out.

The Bluths' Misadventures Continue

Cera stuck with the Bluths through thick and thin, all the way until the show's finale in 2006. By this time, our little George Michael had grown into a strapping young lad - a whole 17 years old! I know, it's crazy to think about, isn't it?

Imagine this: when the show started, Cera was still in middle school. By the time it ended, he was old enough to drive (well, in theory - let's face it, he was probably still a bit of an awkward driver).

But let's not forget where it all began. Arrested Development was Cera's first big role, and it's the one that'll always have a special place in our hearts. He was just a kid, navigating the crazy world of the Bluths, and we were all right there with him.

A Final Thought

So, there you have it - Michael Cera was 14 when he started Arrested Development and 17 when it ended. Isn't it amazing how time flies? It just goes to show, you're never too young to make a splash in Hollywood (or too old to be awkward, am I right?).

Here's to Michael Cera, the awkward teen who grew up right before our eyes. And here's to you, for joining me on this little trip down memory lane. Now, go forth and enjoy some Arrested Development - just remember, there's always money in the banana stand.
