Portia De Rossi’s appearance in the fifth season of Arrested Development has left fans confused and outraged.
De Rossi, who plays Lindsay in the popular series, has been placed into the scenes via a green screen, having filmed her scenes separately from her co-stars, and it’s blatantly obvious.
Twitter user @MrEAnders tweeted a series of odd shots of de Rossi from the season, noting that her character appears with a sheet over her head in protest to her mother’s complaints about her appearance.
De Rossi appeared on wife Ellen Degeneres’ talk show earlier this month and revealed she had retired from acting.
She announced she had told Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz she would not participate in season five.
‘He seemed understanding and totally got it and we had a great conversation — and then he wrote me into five episodes,’ she explained.
‘Don’t know how it happened but I am on season five.’
Portia’s inability to film the scenes on set with fellow co-star’s is presumably due to her disinterest of being involved in the fifth season.
