On April 21, 2021, Deadline reported that a Jim Henson biopic called Muppet Man was in development with the Disney and Henson companies co-producing.
Michael Mitnick (The Current War and The Giver) was signed to script, rewriting a previous script by Aaron and Jordan Kandell (who referred to it in their Academy for Creative Media bios as The Muppet Man), with Lisa Henson producing. The movie was to focus on Henson's journey to convince broadcasters that the Muppets were a viable idea for television.
•The project followed a previous attempt by the Henson Company from 2009 called The Muppet Man by Christopher Weekes, which made that year's Blacklist of unproduced scripts. (see Talk: The Muppet Man)
•Another biopic, simply titled Henson, also went unproduced.
