The Muppets are back...

Comedic genius Jason Segel has co-written and will star in 'The Muppets' due to come out in 2011 and man, they make the Hangover 2 cast list look like a few scribbles on a napkin, and funnily enough Zach Galifianakis is a part of both!

The movie is currently shooting in and around LA and with names like Jack Black, Rachel Ray, Amy Adams, Alan Arkin, Billy Crystal and ..... wait for it ..... Jean-Claude Van Damme lined up, we can't wait to see this one. There are even rumors that Lady GaGa & Chris Cooper may make appearances as well....! Of course your favourite Muppets are being brought back too, so expect to see Floyd, Miss Piggy, Rolf, Fozzie Bear, Animal and the star of the show, Kermit the Frog (who will be voiced by Brian Henson, Muppets creator Jim Henson's son) and all of the other furry friends.

The director at the helm is James Bobin who's credits include The Flight of the Conchords and Da Ali G Show (which was the first major show for actor Sasha Baron Cohen - Borat)

For those of you that can't wait (or aren't sure what all the fuss is about) watch the original Muppet Movie (as listed below)
