From Variety - The Muppets are plotting a return to primetime while looking for their next great character.
ABC has ordered a script and five script outlines for "America's Next Muppet," a reality TV parody in which viewers may actually get a chance to pick Kermit and Miss Piggy's latest colleague.

Matthew Vaughn is directing an adaptation of Neil Gaiman's book STARDUST.

Anyone wondering what Spielberg was up to? Here it is - MUNICH recounts the dramatic story of the secret Israeli squad assigned to track down and assassinate 11 Palestinians believed to have planned the 1972 Munich massacre -- and the personal toll this mission of revenge takes on the team and the man who led it. Eric Bana stars as the Mossad agent charged with leading the band of specialists brought together for this operation. Inspired by actual events, the narrative is based on a number of sources, including the recollections of some who participated in the events themselves. Man. That's.... Man.

Brad Pitt is currently filming his adaptation of the book The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford where he plays, of course, Jesse James.

Johnny Depp's new project, the book Shantaram, is getting a screen treatment from Oscar-winning writer Eric Roth.

The rights to Iron Man for a movie are about to revert to Marvel. New Line hasn't done anything with them... That would mean the only Avenger Marvel doesn't have the screen rights to right now would be... Thor... I think.

ANOTHER new muppet?

Doesn't Pepe the Prawn suck enough, they need -ANOTHER- new Muppet? Sheesh. They should focus on the ones that have been stuck in the periphery, bring them back into the light. Like Rowlf the Dog - he's AWESOME. Or Scooter, who they willfully shoved into the background to pimp their stupid prawn.

NO MORE NEW MUPPETS!

They might just go for an Avengers movie if they have all the rights. Marvel is going to produce its own movies now, so....
