“When I was writing the script I thought he is this guy. I really hoped...I kept imagining him as that guy. And then he came in to audition and I was really nervous because I really wanted him to do Greek, you know? And he...I didn't know who else I could cast. And he was amazing in the audition. Really funny.” KnowsWritingWantedGuyScriptsCastsNervousGreekAuditionsThis GuyThat Guy Author:Nicholas Stoller
“I remember like that scene with Pharrell where they're at the music video shoot, we have this on camera actually, Pharrell's confused because we weren't doing the script. We were doing all this improv and then Diddy says to him... Pharrell's like I don't understand what's going on and Diddy goes, "We do a lot of improv". (laughter) I remember being we just made him into a comedy nerd. We somehow turned Sean Combs into a comedy nerd, so.” MadeRememberComedySceneLaughterCamerasScriptsVideoConfusedNerdSeanCombs Author:Nicholas Stoller
“Maybe I'm just not that humble but our script is awesome. Like Jason is so into the Muppets and such a fan. I'm such a fan of Muppets.” FansScriptsHumbleJasonMuppet Author:Nicholas Stoller
“I think the script's actually pretty solid. It really is a labor of love for us to get this thing off the ground. It was scary but then there was the change in leadership and I think that the new guy in charge is basically like, "We should just do this."” ThinkingShouldGuyLaborScriptsScaryLabor Of Love Author:Nicholas Stoller
“It won't be that expensive, the script is fun, the guys just love this thing, and with all of that, the world is just ready for the Muppets again. It's strange that there hasn't been one for so long. I think there were a lot of political reasons for why that was the case but it's just exciting that now it's going to happen.” ThinkingWorldLongReasonHappensPoliticalGuyFunCasesStrangeReadyExcitingScriptsExpensiveMuppet Author:Nicholas Stoller
