Usually we abhor reporting on rumors. So far as we’re involved, nothing is actual till it’s formally introduced. So contemplate this information much less about an upcoming function, and extra that the concept of a Miss Piggy film was evoked by somebody who may really have the ability to assist make it a actuality.
Within the newest episode of Las Culturistas – the favored podcast from Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers – Jennifer Lawrence stopped by to speak about many issues, solely one among which (probably accidentally) was Miss Piggy.
As revealed by Lawrence, “I don’t know if I can announce this, however I’m simply gonna. Emma Stone and I are producing a Miss Piggy film, and Cole Escola is writing it.” She didn’t develop past that,
So after all, we’re in full hypothesis mode now. On one hand, I’m doubtful that it’s going to come to fruition, if solely as a result of Disney is so tight-fisted with the Muppets, and so they’re already doing new/previous issues with Miss Piggy by the Muppet Present revival. And however, this might be a good way to revitalize Miss Piggy as a personality and a star together with her personal distinctive voice. Cole Escola – author and star of Broadway’s Oh Mary! – may really be the proper individual to breathe new life into the Pig.
It’s additionally very probably that this venture could not even be on Disney’s radar but. With no extra data past the above quote, it’s potential that they’re solely engaged on a spec script for now, with the hope that they’ll use their star energy to get it in entrance of the correct individuals at Muppets Studio.
Time will inform on all issues. However on the very least, we hope to get a glimpse at what Escola, Lawrence, and Stone are envisioning. I can solely assume their concepts for a Miss Piggy film are bonkers and boundary-pushing and quintessentially Piggy.
