By Michael Lopez

Machete meets the Muppets! Ok, we know that movie premise will never fly, but it sure would be cool right? Thankfully Danny Trejo fans are getting the next best thing, as MTV is confirming that he’s signed on for an appearance in the next big Muppets flick.

In just the past few days, the new Muppets film has become a major star-studded affair. Movie sites have posted rumors that Lady Gaga, The Hangover’s Zach Galifianakis, and Jack Black have all agreed to cameos.

So how could they not sign up one of today’s most in-demand Latinos? In just the past few months, Danny’s been featured in two films, a hugely popular video game, and the hit TV show, Modern Family.

In The Muppets, he’ll be playing a “tough guy” prisoner who may be causing a little trouble for our felt-skinned friends. Perhaps an epic fight scene with Kermit The Frog or Elmo? You never know. Seeing how this movie’s coming from the team behind the R-Rated comedy, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, anything is possible…
