Cole Escola Writing Miss Piggy Movie Produced by Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence

by

The news that Cole Escola is writing a Miss Piggy movie – announced with a tweet like, “Oh, Mary!” – seemed unbelievable. But it’s not just true, it’s even more exciting than expected! Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence, both Academy Award winners, are producing the film and will also be appearing in it.

Jennifer Lawrence shared exciting news on the Las Culturistas podcast: Cole Escola, recently cast in One Piece, is writing a movie about Kermit the Frog, the fashion icon from The Muppets. The information was first reported by Deadline.

Jennifer Lawrence revealed some exciting news: she and Emma Stone are producing a new movie starring Miss Piggy, with Cole writing the script. Lawrence also hinted that both she and Stone will likely appear in the film, stating, ‘I think so. We have to.’

Yes. You do, Jennifer Lawrence. You really do.

Although Disney and The Jim Henson Company haven’t officially confirmed the movie, and details about the story are still unknown, the recent news has excited fans and they’re determined to make it a reality. It’s long overdue – despite being a legendary star, Miss Piggy has never had her own film! Luckily, Josh Escola, a Tony Award-winning writer and performer known for the Broadway hit Oh, Mary!, seems like the ideal person to capture Miss Piggy’s unique personality. Escola’s previous work includes popular shows like At Home With Amy Sedaris, Tuca & Bertie, and Difficult People. If anyone can bring out the best in The Muppets’ diva, it’s Escola.

Even with stars like Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence attached, getting a movie made and into theaters is never a sure thing. However, we believe this film has a strong chance of succeeding, thanks to more than just the writer’s skills. After all, which studio executive would risk turning down a project involving Miss Piggy?
