Jennifer Lawrence has revealed that she and her good friend Emma Stone are producing a movie about the iconic Muppet character Miss Piggy. The Hunger Games actress, who runs the production company Excellent Cadaver, revealed on the Las Culturistas podcast on Wednesday that she and Stone are developing a Miss Piggy project that will be written by Oh, Mary! playwright Cole Escola. "I don't know if I can announce this, but I'm just gonna," she said. "Emma Stone and I are producing a Miss Piggy movie, and Cole is writing it." During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon later that day, Lawrence divulged that the idea came to her in the Covid lockdown of 2020 after a conversation with a friend who is not in the industry. "It was also kind of around (the time of) cancel culture. It was like both things were kind of happening at once. We were all locked up in our rooms and naughty people were being locked up in prison," she explained. "Miss Piggy is a feminist icon. And (my friend) said, 'You know, it would be so funny if Miss Piggy got cancelled.'" The Oscar winner then clarified, "Now that is not the plot necessarily, but it got the wheels turning of like, wait, there hasn't actually been a feminist, Miss Piggy-starring movie." Lawrence started to develop the project on her own before bringing it to Stone, who runs the Fruit Tree production company, as she is "the Muppet-head" and a better business person. "I'm like the ideas guy. So I went to her to be like, 'What do we do?'" she recalled. "So now Cole is writing it and they're perfect." The actress confirmed in both interviews that she and Stone "have to" make on-screen appearances in their Miss Piggy film. Miss Piggy, the longtime romantic interest of Kermit the Frog, made her debut on The Muppet Show in the 1970s and has appeared in many TV spin-offs, specials and movies over the years, most recently in 2014's Muppets Most Wanted. Seth Rogen is currently producing a special revival episode of The Muppet Show to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the series in 2026.
