Critical End!

Muppet News Flash!

by Ryan

Yoinked from /Film

/Film, famous for being the site I steal most of my posts from, has scored some awesome pictures from the set of the new Jason Segel Muppet movie.  Gotta say, I like what I see.  Check out the link for pics of Henson Studios converted to the rundown Muppet Studios, as well as the Electric Mayhem bus, and puppeteers performing Walter, Segel’s best pal.

And if you haven’t heard, Amy Adams has been cast as Segel’s girlfriend, and the evil-faced Chris Cooper has signed on for the villain.  No new ground broken for either actor, but I can watch Adams be a girlfriend and Cooper be a dick all day.  Fingers crossed, folks.

  Here’s something odd: Compare the cast photo above to this one- http://www.imdb.com/media/rm1413842688/tt1204342

  Did they just add in three people? And is Bret really in this?

  Interesting! I hadn’t seen that version. It’s possible that Henson took the big group picture with just the poser Muppets and then added humans in later, creating a few different versions for different publicity outlets.

  According to MuppetWiki, the pic came out just a few days ago. Bret was included, though he’s never been officially mentioned as being in it. http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Bret_McKenzie I’m going to guess that if he was in the Disney sanctioned picture, he’s involved in some capacity. Maybe songs?

  Run, Muppets. Run far, far away.
