Details are effectively non-existent at the moment — so no word on plot, cast, or projected release date — but the news comes as a welcome surprise for longtime fans of muppets, magic, and David Bowie's codpiece. Along with the new film, the production company is also working on a movie based on Fraggle Rock and a sequel to 1982's Dark Crystal. You may now start reciting your favorite songs.
