The How I Met Your Mother actor, Jason Segel, is working on a new Muppets movie. Not only will he be writing and producing the film, but he will also be the lead human character.
The Muppets movie will be written by Segel and Nicholas Stoller, produced by Segel, David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman, and will be directed by James Bobin.
Segel has been working on this project for awhile, but everything will be put into place with the release of the film out in 2012. Segel did put together his own musical called ‘Dracula,’ in the hit movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall. He even did a convincing job as a puppeteer, so I guess he will have had some experience.
