The Muppets...Again!

mclay18 · 11-04-2012, 10:32 PM

Collider exclusively broke the scoop that Disney is high on Muppet fever after last year's pic grossed $160M worldwide. As previously reported, James Bobin is directing and Nicholas Stoller is writing the pic. (Jason Segel isn't writing or co-starring in the film, but he may make a cameo.)

SOURCE

The film will begin shooting in late January to April 2013 at London's Pinewood Studios, befitting the plot will be a Europe-set comedy caper. Christoph Waltz is playing an Interpol agent, which is the only casting so far.

Disney will release the film on March 21, 2014 instead of December 2013 as originally planned.

Disney has apparently set a December 20, 2013 date for this movie.

Pink Ranger · 11-05-2012, 07:12 AM

I want an intense interrogation scene between Waltz and Dr. Teeth on a dairy farm in France.

Dr. Evil · 11-05-2012, 06:19 PM

Will we find out in this movie where in Sweden Swedish Chef comes from?

Incrediblejeff · 11-05-2012, 06:24 PM

I did not see the first film, so what did he do in that one?

Filmboy · 11-06-2012, 12:32 AM

You know, I would love to see a Sesame Street movie, just saying

Not much he was mostly a background character.I always wanted a Sweetums centric Film or special though.The biggest role he ever got was in "The Frog Prince".

No, was it any good?

Homer J. Fong · 11-09-2012, 01:28 AM

No idea, I've never seen it. But it is a Sesame Street movie, and it does exist.

Anyway, I'm definitely looking forward to this movie. The Muppets was one of my favorites of 2011.

psylockolussus · 11-09-2012, 03:42 AM

I hope they bring back Amy Adams!

If Jason Segel isn't coming back, Adams probably won't either. Unless their characters broke up.

If Segel makes a cameo, she'll probably do one too. But it won't be a leading role like the first pic.

Octoberist · 11-09-2012, 06:16 PM

More Rizzo please.

mclay18 · 01-14-2013, 03:58 PM

Disney has made the official release date announcement: March 21, 2014.

http://collider.com/pirates-of-the-c...e-date/224113/

Gives production more time in terms of filming and post-production.

First Look at The Muppets...Again!

terry78 · 01-30-2013, 08:51 AM

Haha, while I was hoping for a title more in line with the sequels from back in the day, this one is funny.

Darkness Falls · 01-30-2013, 11:33 AM

i love the title

Pink Ranger · 01-30-2013, 11:36 AM

Ricky Gervais is putting my ass in that movie theatre seat.

Megarob · 01-30-2013, 12:48 PM

Great title. I am a HUGE Muppets fan. Loved the last one. Muppets in Manhattan and Muppet Treasure Island and probably my favorite. Can't wait.

Incrediblejeff · 01-30-2013, 01:08 PM

I love the title,I'm excited.

the dmg · 01-30-2013, 01:12 PM

I think as long as they don't go too crazy, the sequel should be good.
