What kind of muppet-mischief are they brewing up now at the Jim Henson Company?  Brian Henson, son of Jim Henson tells of progress of movies for “Fraggle Rock” and a “Dark Crystal” sequel.

Henson on “Fraggle Rock“:

“[Fraggle Rock is] still in very active development.  It’ll have a strong musical component.  It’ll be expanded to an older audience. ‘Fraggle Rock’ [the TV show] was presented… for a pretty exclusively children’s audience. The feature film does expand it to be more accessible to a wider audience.”

Henson on “Dark Crystal” sequel:

“We have a ‘Dark Crystal’ sequel, called ‘The Power of the Dark Crystal.’ It has a very strong script.”

Henson wraps up:

“Both of those projects… are very close to going into pre-production.  [The studio is] just [in the process of] putting together the final finance pieces and the final distribution pieces.”
