The next Muppets movie has a new title

[Wang Chung]

The Muppets...Again, the follow-up to last year's The Muppets, is getting a new title, one markedly less easy to say in a tone of world-weary resignation. The madcap, European-set sequel—which is not a remake of The Great Muppet Caper, but is nonetheless a great caper involving Muppets—is now called The Muppets Most Wanted. Producers have also confirmed that Flight Of The Conchords' Bret Mackenzie, who won an Oscar for his song "Man or Muppet" in the previous film, will again contribute several songs.

The name alone makes me want to watch this film. Always a fan of the muppets so I hope this is as good as the last one.

I still haven't seen the last one even though I really want to... not sure what's keeping me. Anyone confirmed to star in this one? I'm interested simply for Bret's inclusion honestly, was really happy when I heard he won an Oscar.

 

[Wang Chung]

I haven't seen the list of Celebs yet, but I will look to see who I can find. I know Jason Segal isn't coming back even though he revived the muppets

 

[Castiel]

I thought I heard he opted out of this one, weird.

Yeah he did. Not sure why he was the one who pushed for the film.



Here are some confirmed names for this:


Danny Trejo, Christoph Waltz, Tom Hiddleston, Sean Combs, Ray Liotta, Tina Fey, Ricky Gervais

 

[Postman Dave]

That's a pretty trippy list of actors.
