Emma Stone was asked whether, in her next project with Jennifer Lawrence, she would play Miss Piggy, the uncontested diva of The Muppet Show, and reacted “indignantly” to the suggestion.
During an interview with W magazine, the 37-year-old actress completely dismissed the possibility of bringing Miss Piggy to life.
“First of all, that’s the biggest insult to Miss Piggy I’ve ever heard, and I will not allow her name to be slandered like that,” Stone said jokingly. “Why would I play a real star?”
Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence are currently co-producing a new Miss Piggy film for Disney, which is in the early stages of development. The actresses are expected to star in the new production, but as Stone made clear, the role of Miss Piggy belongs only to Miss Piggy.
“She’s the best… what do you mean?” Stone asked. “No, of course I’m not playing Miss Piggy. And neither is Jennifer Lawrence. We didn’t even come close. Are you crazy?” she asked the interviewer.
“Miss Piggy is playing Miss Piggy. She would storm out right now just at the suggestion,” she concluded.
