Cera made a guest appearance in "The Daughter Also Rises", a 2012 episode of the animated sitcom "The Simpsons" as the voice of Nick, a love interest to Lisa Simpson. Cera made his theater debut in a production of Kenneth Lonergan's play "This Is Our Youth" in a two-week run during March 2012 at the Sydney Opera House. The play also featured his "Scott Pilgrim" co-star Kieran Culkin and Tavi Gevinson. A Broadway production at the Cort Theater opened in September 2014 and closed in January 2015. "The New York Times" theater critic Ben Brantley praised Cera for achieving "something remarkable": "the sense of an amorphous being assuming and losing shape in the course of roughly 12 hours". Also in 2012, Cera played a supporting role in the drama "The End of Love" and appeared in the short film "The Immigrant". "Arrested Development" was revived for a fourth season in 2012 by Netflix, with Cera reprising his role as George Michael. Cera worked in the writer's room and served as a consulting producer during its production. The season was released in May 2013.
