Muppets Most Wanted Gets Some Fun Parody Posters

March 8, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Muppets-Most-Wanted-parody2
Disney likes to have fun with its Muppets marketing, and that’s certainly true here, with the release of four parody posters, which feature Kermit and co. taking on Skyfall, The World Is Not Enough, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Face/Off.

Take a look at them above and below.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Following on from 2011’s smash-hit The Muppets, all your favourite characters are back in a hilarious all-new spy thriller adventure in Disney’s MUPPETS MOST WANTED, hitting cinemas March 28th, 2014. Packed with celebrity cameos and featuring star turns from Ricky Gervais, Tiny Fey and Ty Burrell, MUPPETS MOST WANTED takes the entire Muppets gang on a global tour, including stops in Berlin, Madrid, Dublin and London. But mayhem follows them overseas as they find themselves unwittingly entangled in an international crime caper headed by Constantine, the World’s Number One Criminal, and dead-ringer for Kermit.

‘Disney’s MUPPETS MOST WANTED is directed by James Bobin and produced by David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman. Bobin co-wrote the screenplay with Nicholas Stoller, who is also executive producer with John G. Scotti. Featuring music from Academy Award®-winning songwriter Bret McKenzie, MUPPETS MOST WANTED comes to UK cinemas March 28, 2014.’ It’ll be out a week earlier in the US.

Disney Announces Two New Marvel Movies For 2016 & 2017

June 14, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

muppets-again-promo-pic1Disney has announced its release slate well into the future, including revealing release dates for two untitled Marvel Phase 3 movies, the first coming May 6th, 2016 and the second one set for May 5th, 2017. There’s no news on what these movies might be, but they’d follow Thor 2, Captain America 2, Guardians Of The Galaxy, The Avengers 2 and Ant-Man.

It could be that these new films will be yet more sequels to already established, but there’s also a chance it’s the long gestating Doctor Strange of Black Panther movies, or another new character to the big screen.

Disney also revealed that there’s a new title for The Muppets…Again, which has become Muppets Most Wanted (a much more sensible name). It will keep its original release date of March 21, 2014.

And while the Cars spin-off Planes doesn’t reach cinemas until this summer, Disney obviously has high hopes for it, as they’re planning a very quick sequel, Plane: Fire & Rescue, which is set for release on July 18th, 2014.

Other announcements included that Rob Marshall’s musical Into The Woods will get released on December 25th, 2014, suggesting there are already hopes for Oscars.

Tom Hiddleston Joins The Muppets…Again!

March 27, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Tom Hiddleston at The Avengers LA PremiereThe Muppets…Again! may have been shooting for several weeks, but it’s never too late to add a cameo – indeed we’ve been promised quite a few in the movie. The latest to join is Tom Hiddleston, who according to the MuppetHenson blog, has landed a small role in the movie.

While Disney owns both The Muppets and Marvel, he’s not playing Loki in the film, although that would have been oddly awesome. According to Hiddleston’s online CV, he’s playing someone called The Great Escapo, who is presumably a magician, although we don’t know exactly how he’ll fit into the movie.

Here’s the film’s synopsis: ‘Disney’s ‘The Muppets …Again!’ takes the entire Muppets gang on a global tour, selling out grand theatres in some of Europe’s most exciting destinations, including Berlin, Madrid and London. But mayhem follows the Muppets overseas, as they find themselves unwittingly entangled in an international crime caper headed by Constantine—the World’s Number One Criminal and a dead ringer for Kermit—and his dastardly sidekick Dominic, aka Number Two, portrayed by Ricky Gervais, creator of ‘Derek’ and the Golden Globe®- and Emmy®-winning series ‘The Office’ and ‘Extras’. The film stars Golden Globe-, Emmy- and SAG Award®-winning actress and writer Tina Fey (‘30 Rock’, ‘Mean Girls’, ‘Date Night’) as Nadya, a feisty prison guard, and Emmy Award winner Ty Burrell (TV’s ‘Modern Family’) as Interpol agent Jean Pierre Napoleon.’

First The Muppets…Again Promo Pics Arrive As Production Begins

January 30, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

muppets-again-promo-pic1
Walt Disney Studios has announced that The Muppets…Again has started production, and to celebrate they’ve released the first couple of images, which you can see above and below. One features Miss Piggy with Ricky Gervais, while the other has a whole band of Muppets hanging around in a station (if you’re wondering who’s in the telephone box, it’s director James Bobin) – as you can guess, Kermit and co. are coming to London as part of a European tour.

Here’s the press release announcing the start of production: The filmmaking team behind 2011’s celebrated film ’The Muppets’ reunites as Disney’s ’The Muppets … Again!’ kicked off production last week in London. The all-new global Muppets adventure welcomes Ricky Gervais, Ty Burrell and Tina Fey to the mayhem, along with Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Walter and rest of the Muppets.

The film is directed by James Bobin (‘Flight of the Conchords,’ ‘Da Ali G Show’), who was just nominated for a BAFTA for ‘The Muppets’ (Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer), and produced by the Academy Award®-nominated team of David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman (‘The Fighter’, ‘The Proposal’). With a screenplay by Bobin and Nicholas Stoller (‘The Five-Year Engagement’), who is also executive producer with John Scotti, ‘The Muppets … Again!’ will feature music from Academy Award®-winning songwriter Bret McKenzie (‘Flight of the Conchords’), who won an Oscar® for best original song for ‘The Muppets’ (‘Man or Muppet’). The new film will hit the big screen March 21, 2014.

‘It’s great to be back working with the Muppets,’ said Bobin, ‘some of them even remember my name occasionally now. As for the movie, it’s a tip of the hat to the old-school crime capers of the ’60s, but featuring a frog, a pig, a bear and a dog—no panthers, even pink ones—along with the usual Muppet-y mix of mayhem, music and laughs.’

Disney’s ‘The Muppets …Again!’ takes the entire Muppets gang on a global tour, selling out grand theatres in some of Europe’s most exciting destinations, including Berlin, Madrid and London. But mayhem follows the Muppets overseas, as they find themselves unwittingly entangled in an international crime caper headed by Constantine—the World’s Number One Criminal and a dead ringer for Kermit—and his dastardly sidekick Dominic, aka Number Two, portrayed by Ricky Gervais, creator of ‘Derek’ and the Golden Globe®- and Emmy®-winning series ‘The Office’ and ‘Extras’.

The film stars Golden Globe-, Emmy- and SAG Award®-winning actress and writer Tina Fey (‘30 Rock’, ‘Mean Girls’, ‘Date Night’) as Nadya, a feisty prison guard, and Emmy Award winner Ty Burrell (TV’s ‘Modern Family’) as Interpol agent Jean Pierre Napoleon. Said Kermit the Frog, ‘This movie takes us places we’ve never been before. And trust me—this frog has never seen so much international flavour. I think audiences will eat it up—the entertainment, that is.’

Featuring a slew of surprising celebrity cameos, Disney’s ‘The Muppets … Again!’ will shoot on location in London and in Hollywood, as well as in the famed Pinewood Studios in Iver Heath, Buckinghamshire, just outside of London.
