Former "Arrested Development" star Jason Bateman and his wife, Amanda Anka, are expecting their first child this fall, his rep, Cara Tripicchio confirmed to theshowbuzz.com. The baby is a girl.

The couple, who are based in Los Angeles, wed in 2001. Anka, an actress, is the daughter of singer and songwriter Paul Anka.

Bateman, 37, whose Fox comedy "Arrested Development" was cancelled earlier this year, got his start in acting on shows such as "The Hogan Family" and "Silver Spoons."

Since the cancellation of his critically acclaimed TV series, he's been busy doing films. He plays Vince Vaughn's realtor in the "The Break-Up." He just wrapped the film "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium," a comedy starring Dustin Hoffman and Natalie Hoffman.

He now begins work on Peter Berg's thriller "The Kingdom," starring Chris Cooper and Jamie Foxx. This film is due to be released next year.
