Jason Segel is writing The Greatest Muppet Movie of All Time with James Bobin directing, so its time to start the music, and its time to light the lights.
The Muppets are getting out of the mothballs, but as with any Muppet film there are live actors as well. And it looks like Segel will be taking on that role himself.
Recently retitled The Greatest Muppet Movie of All Time, the film has signed it’s first human actor, according to THR, and it’s none other than the film’s screenwriter Jason Segel. This shouldn’t come as that big of a surprise since the idea to even make a new Muppet film essentially came from his brain; it only makes sense that he step into the lead.
And very fitting indeed, as his Sarah Marshall character’s obsession with Muppets made me crave another Muppet movie, then hearing the actor was involved had me encouraged.
I am dying to see what they do with this!
