If you’ve watched your Blu-Ray ofThe Muppets, you’ve probably seen Ricky Gervais’ scene, which was deleted from the final version of the film.  Now it looks like Gervais might get a second chance, as he’s rumored to star in the upcoming sequel.

According to Cinema Blend, Ricky Gervais is in talks to appear as the human star of the film, alongside Ty Burrell, bringing his own brand of British wit and nervous laughter to the Muppets.

Aside from his deleted appearance in The Muppets, you may have seen him singing a Celebrity Lullaby to Elmo on Sesame Street.  If you haven’t, check it out right here, along with two more particularly funny videos starring Gervais and Elmo:
