Miss Piggy is ready for her close-up.
Jennifer Lawrence has revealed that she and Emma Stone are developing a solo film centered on the iconic Muppet. The actress also announced that Oh, Mary! creator and Tony winner Cole Escola is writing the film’s script.
Lawrence made the announcement about the upcoming film on the latest episode of the Las Culturistas podcast, which was released on Wednesday.
“I don’t know if I can announce this, but I’m just going to,” Lawrence said. “Emma Stone and I are producing a Miss Piggy movie and Cole is writing it.”
When hosts Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang asked Lawrence if she and Stone would appear in the film, the actress said, “I think so, we have to.”
