The 35-year-old actress in an appearance at The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, revealed what sparked the idea for the project which Tony winner Cole Escola is penning.
“So, during lockdown, one of my good friends who is not in the industry—it was also kind of around cancel culture,” she recalled. “It was like both things were kind of happening at once. We were all locked up in our rooms, naughty people were being locked up in prison.”
Lawrence explained, “Miss Piggy is a feminist icon, and she said it would be so funny if Miss Piggy got cancelled. Now, that is not the plot, necessarily, but it got the wheels turning.”
The No Hard Feelings actress noted that since “there hasn’t actually been” a solo project about Miss Piggy, Lawrence added, “So, I started kind of producing it.
Lauding her pal’s sharp and executive thinking, she added, “Emma Stone is the Muppet-head. Also, Emma Stone is a shark … I’m, just like, the ideas guy. So, I went to her to be like, ‘What do we do?’ So, now Cole is writing it, and they’re perfect.”
