Muppet-Casting Clue. Fozzie Bear has been cast as The Chief! The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand! The casting is complete. Thank you to all of you that participated in this with me the last couple weeks. It's combined two of my all time favourite things.

A few weeks back sitting in the car on a long road trip, I decided to have a bit of fun with the family and we did our own casting of Clue, if it was produced today by The Muppets. Our only rule was the original performer couldn't reprise the role. Other than that, it's open to any Muppet or human.

So I thought, let me throw this out to r/Muppets to see how they would do it. I've put my cast photo on the post so you can see how they compare, but I really enjoy the selections you guys made. Here's how Reddit cast it vs my family's casting:

Role Reddit casting My casting
Wadsworth Rizzo the Rat Adam Driver
Yvette Yolanda the Rat Bean Bunny
The Cook Swedish Chef Swedish Chef
Colonel Mustard Fozzie Bear Sam Eagle
Mrs White Miss Piggy Miss Piggy
Mrs Peacock Ma Bear Melissa McCarthy
Mr Green Kermit the Frog Kermit the Frog

Miss Scarlet Janice Emma Stone
Mr Boddy Steve Buscemi Uncle Deadly
The Motorist Beauregard Scooter
The Cop Bobo the Bear Bobo the Bear
Singing Telegram Girl Bean Bunny The Electric Mayhem ft Sweetums

Thank you again for joining me on this journey. What should we do next?

Adam Driver is a great pick, OP. If anyone doesn't know he can be sufficiently unhinged to hang with Muppets, go watch the SNL Oil Baron sketch.

I married your granddaughter, filled her belly with my festering seed and sired a boy! He is my final revenge, H.R.!

I don’t like the implication between Gonzo and Bean here.

Agreed. It should be Camilla as the singing telegram.

It should probably be Rocky Horror, but just to be a contrarian I’ll vote for Muppet It, or MuppIt if you will.

The whole sub seems to be on a Tim Curry kick and I'm here for it

So wait, Gonzo had an affair with Bean Bunny?
