New Muppets Movie!

Do you remember the Dracula Musical bit in Forgetting Sarah Marshall? Hilarious, wasn't it? Well it wasn't something that was simply written into the script. Actor/writer Jason Segel has had a long-standing desire to make a Muppet-styled movie. He wrote the Dracula Musical before ever getting into Sarah Marshall, and used the movie as a means to promote his Muppet-madness! Crazy boy indeed...

... but the point is that, thanks to Segel working his Muppet-mania into the movie, Disney has enlisted him to be a co-writer for the new muppet movie! That's right! We're psyched about this!

Not only are muppet movies easy to love, but we can imagine the amazing humour that will be written into the script by Segel. And we're also hoping he makes a cameo, or has a leading role... because he's just oh-so lovable and cute. We'd love to see him canoodling with the darling muppet characters.

What do you think of this pairing of genre and writer?
