Batman protects Gotham City and fights crime in the Lego multiverse’s DC superhero dimension. Bruce Wayne, Batman’s alter ego, attends the city’s winter gala, only to be enraged by Barbara’s plans to restructure the police force so that it can function without Batman.

The Lego Batman Movie had its world premiere on January 29, 2017, in Dublin, Ireland, and was released in the United States on February 10, 2017.

Will Arnett Ratatouille 

Arnett appeared as Erik Horst, Skinner’s German sous chef. A young rat aspires to be a chef like his hero, the late Auguste Gusteau. Remy jumps in when he notices the restaurant’s garbage boy Alfredo Linguini attempting to fix a soup he ruined. They are able to reproduce the soup and continue cooking because they work together. Remy leads his clan to raid the restaurant’s pantries for food after learning of Gusteau’s death. A food critic, Anton Ego, writes a glowing review in which he describes Remy as “nothing less than the finest chef in France.” Due to health concerns, the restaurant is closed, but Remy and Colette opened a new bistro.

Ratatouille premiered on June 22, 2007, at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles, California, and was released in the United States on June 29, 2007. The film earned $623.7 million in box office revenue and received widespread critical acclaim for its screenplay, animation, voice performances, and Michael Giacchino’s score. It was also nominated for several Academy Awards, including Best Animated Feature and Best Original Screenplay. Ratatouille was later named one of the BBC’s 100 greatest motion pictures of the twenty-first century in a 2016 poll of international critics.

Will Arnett The Office

On March 23, 2011, Arnett appeared in the penultimate episode of The Office season 7. Fred Henry applied for the position of regional manager at Dunder Mifflin-Sabre. Fred was a navy officer stationed in China. He worked as a weather forecaster. He deeply regrets sending 50 soldiers to a Mariah Carrey concert without jackets because he predicted 70 degrees Fahrenheit when it turned out to be in the low 50s.

Fred later applied for the regional manager position and became arrogant, telling the officer that he had the plan to double their sales. When Jim called his bluff, he made up a story. It became clear that he had no idea what was going on and had done absolutely no research on the company. Later, he tells the cameras that he fully intends to get the job, but he forgot the name of the company, so he quickly glanced at the list of companies in the building behind him and chose Vance Refrigeration.

Will Arnett was one of the most likely candidates to become the office manager in Season 8 according to Paul Lieberstein; however, shortly after the airing of Search Committee, Arnett starred in the pilot for Up All Night, which was eventually picked up by NBC.

Will Arnett 30 Rock

He appeared as a guest star on King of the Hill and 30 Rock, for which he received four Emmy nominations for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series. 30 Rock episodes were shot in New York in a single-camera setup (with the exception of two live episodes, which were shot in a multiple-camera setup).

On October 11, 2006, the pilot episode aired, and seven seasons followed. Alec Baldwin, Tracy Morgan, Jane Krakowski, Jack McBrayer, Scott Adsit, Judah Friedlander, Katrina Bowden, Keith Powell, Lonny Ross, John Lutz, Kevin Brown, Grizz Chapman, and Maulik Pancholy co-star in the series.

Will Arnett Arrested Development

After his fourth failed pilot, Arnett “swore off pilots” completely, until his agent convinced him to audition for the pilot for Arrested Development. Arnett achieved mainstream success in television in 2003 when he portrayed George Oscar “Gob” Bluth II in the Fox comedy series Arrested Development, and he was nominated for his first Emmy in 2006. Despite critical acclaim and a cult following, the show was canceled after three seasons due to low ratings. He also played Max the Magician on Sesame Street, a nod to Gob Bluth’s habit of performing magic shows to Europe’s “The Final Countdown.”

Arnett’s two favorite episodes of the show, according to a 2006 interview with the Los Angeles Times, were “Pier Pressure” and “Afternoon Delight.” His appearance on Arrested Development paved the way for him to land a number of larger roles in feature films. Despite his background in drama, his role in Arrested Development is still comedic, and he frequently plays smug antagonists. He “never considered himself a comic” and considers himself first and foremost an “actor.” Prior to Arrested Development, Arnett appeared in The Sopranos and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit in 2002.

Will Arnett Parks and Recreation

On November 17, 2009, it was announced that Arnett would try to win over real-life wife Amy Poehler in a guest spot on Parks and Recreation. NBC’s “Comedy Night Done Right” programming included Parks and Recreation during its Thursday night prime-time block. During its first season, the series received mixed reviews. The second and subsequent seasons were widely praised after a change in tone and format.

Will Arnett SNL

In The Brothers Solomon, he reunited with Odenkirk and co-starred with Will Forte from Saturday Night Live. Saturday Night Live is an American late-night live sketch comedy and variety show created and developed by Lorne Michaels and Dick Ebersol. Michaels is currently the showrunner of the show. George Carlin hosted the show’s debut on NBC on October 11, 1975, under the original title NBC’s Saturday Night.

The show’s comedy sketches, which frequently parody current culture and politics, are performed by a large and diverse cast of repertory and newer cast members. Each episode is hosted by a celebrity guest, who usually delivers the opening monologue and performs in sketches with the cast, with musical guests providing featured performances. A typical episode starts with a cold open sketch that ends with someone breaking character and proclaiming, “Live from New York, it’s Saturday Night!” and thus officially kicking off the show.

Will Arnett LEGO Masters

His involvement with The LEGO Group has continued, as Fox Network has announced him as the host of their show LEGO Masters, which will premiere on February 5, 2020. The show follows teams of two Lego-building competitors who are tasked with constructing creations out of Lego pieces based on a given theme within a given time frame. Following the allotted time for construction, the teams present their creations to host Will Arnett and two expert judges from the Lego Group: Amy Corbett, a senior design manager at Lego, and Jamie Berard, who oversees the Lego Creator Expert and Lego Architecture lines at Lego.

The experts name the winning build, as well as the bottom two teams, and explain why they were chosen in this manner. They then announce the losing team, who, with the exception of the first week, is out of the competition. In addition to judging, Amy and Jamie make suggestions to the teams about halfway through the build.

The Golden Brick was awarded to the team with the best design judged by the experts in the first episode, which they can use on any other challenge after the build period but before the judging to automatically advance to the next challenge if they are not confident in their work. When they turn in the Golden Brick for immunity, it becomes available as a reward for a future challenge. The season will conclude with a finale in which the top teams will compete for $100,000, a Lego Masters trophy, and the title of Lego Master.
