Why Jason Segel (star of the last Muppets) Isn't In "Muppets Most Wanted"


There you have it!  "Muppets Most Wanted" hits theaters March 21st, 2014!

But where's the guy from the last one?

His name is Jason Segel and he never wanted to be in this one.  He is a Muppets fan and the last one was his baby.  He made it so the franchise would live again and he could watch them again - from the outside.  He's done a great thing for us all in bringing back the Muppets, if you ask me.  He made the first happen and now they are self-sustaining again!  How great is that?

Here's what Jason had to say about it:


"My goal was to bring The Muppets back and I did that leaving them in very good hands, my writing partner and James Bobin the director. I did what I set out to do, and now I wanna pursue more human-related projects (laughs).

All I wanted to do was to set the stage for them to do whatever they wanted. I’m sure I’ll return in some capacity here and there, but that was half a decade of my life. Five years of hard work. I’m ready for a little puppet break.

Sounds pretty intelligent to me.
