Muppets Sequel Moves Ahead... Without Jason Segal fetchpriority=
It's been reported that Disney will be making a sequel to the highly successful Muppets film, however, this project may not have Jason Segal involved. Segal was definitely key in making the film a success, wanting to make sure that longtime fans of The Muppets were happy as well as newcomers.

However, Nicholas Stoller, co-write of the film, had a place in the film's success as well. And now, Stoller has reportedly struck a deal with Disney to work on the sequel as well as director James Bobin. Segal's schedule will be too full to take on a writing/starring role, but it is said that if his schedule permits, he could possibly make an appearance.
