Jason Bateman's role in Netflix 's Black Rabbit feels about as far from his type-A Arrested Development character as you can get.

The eight -episode thriller is set in the fictional eponymous restaurant, which has become the talk of New York .

The show’s setting, energy, and vibrant swirl of an ensemble were inspired by the 18 years they spent living in the city.

Jason Bateman directed the first two episodes of Black Rabbit .

His Ozark wife Laura Linney directed the next two episodes, which kick the show into a new gear.

The first scene between Law and Bateman , when the brothers tenuously reunite in a local diner, illuminates the show’s dramatic core.

Black Rabbit's New York is still Baylin and Susman ’s New York .

It's informed by experiences like the summers they spent on Coney Island and the Russian and Turkish Baths of the East Village .

Even the chaotic flow of the story feels autobiographical.
