They’ve already parodied The Hangover 2, and The Green Lantern, but the latest parody trailer for The Muppets new movie; titled The Pig With the Froggy Tattoo; riffs off what is easily the most talked about and well received trailer of the year so far; the trailer for the remake of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.
The Muppets movie will find all of the old gang returning to put on one last huge show, and a massive fundraising telethon, in order to save the Muppet Theatre from an oil tycoon (Chris Cooper, The Bourne Identity) who’s threatening to demolish it, and will see the felt-lined friends; Kermit, Miss Piggy, Gonzo, Animal, and the rest; sharing the screen with Amy Adams (The Fighter) and Jason Segel (Forgetting Sarah Marshall), and once again bumping heads with a host of guest stars; including Jack Black (School of Rock), Zach Galifianakis (The Hangover), Ricky Gervais (The Office), Whoopi Goldberg (Little Rascals), Danny Trejo (Machete), and Katy Perry (Sesame Street); when The Muppets is released in the US on November 23rd, and hits UK cinemas on February 17th.
