The Muppets Return?

So, I was reading the press release for "Gepetto and Son" at TUTS and this showed up at the end of it:

"Joining Schwartz on the creative team is David I. Stern...[who has]...worked worked on numerous feature films, including The Mupepts Return."

Is this the title of their new movie? Does this mean it's been greenlit?

And technically, if they never went away, can they return?

I'd include the link, but for some reason BWW isn't letting me copy/paste today.

Not sure what that reference pertains to but there is a new Muppet's film in the works with director Nicholas Stoller at Disney.

I was hoping they were going to push this web initiative but it doesn't seem to be going that way. It's a shame how this entire franchise has been mismanaged for decades now.

Here's the link. See if you can spot the glaring factual error in the press release!

Throwing it out there:

The local community theater (Starlight Theater at Rock Valley College) did the orchestrations and my former chorus teacher was Gepetto, and met Stephen Schwartz.


End psycho-babble.
