Stage and screen star Henry Winkler will have a recurring role on the 10-episode Netflix version of Arrested Development, which is set to debut in 2013, according to The Hollywood Reporter.


The reboot of the former FOX series about a dysfunctional family stars Broadway veterans Jeffrey Tambor and Jessica Walter, as well as Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, Portia de Rossi, Michael Cera, Tony Hale, David Cross, Alia Shawkat, and John Slattery.


Winkler will reprise his role as Barry Zuckerkorn, the incompetent family attorney who does more harm than good for the Bluth family.


The actor will star this fall in the new Broadway play, The Performers, and has previously appeared on the Great White Way in 42 Seconds From Broadway and The Dinner Party. He is best known for his role as Arthur “The Fonz” Fonzarelli on ABC’s Happy Days.
