Kermit plays Odysseus. He never kills anybody himself, and when people die because of his actions it's not because he intended it. He fucks, but only consensually.

Miss Piggy plays Penelope. At the end of the movie, she kills the suitors herself.

The cyclops is is a human actor with a Muppet head.

Human Circe transforms Odysseus's human men into Muppet pigs. They continue speaking and spend the rest of the film in this form.

The suitors are all Hollywood sex symbols. Miss Piggy believes Kermit is dead, but delays choosing a new husband so she can continue basking in their aattention. When she hears he's coming home, she slaughters them so she doesn't have to explain.

    Statler and Waldorf are Scylla and Charybidis. Menalaus has to be either Kermit or Gonzo because Helen has to be either Miss Piggy (It can't be miss piggy though because you've correctly cast her as Penelope who kills the suitors herself) or Camilla.

    Statler and Waldorf

    Chorus of the elderly is already a classic in Greek theatre.

    Damn I would watch this. His crew would all be muppets like Fozzy and Gonzo, except one of them would be a random b-list star. Robin the Frog would play Telemachus.

    Pretty sure my first experience of the Odyssey was a Wishbone episode

    The B-plot of the Wishbone Odysseus episode is the local arbor society keeping a developer from bulldozing a local park

    Swetums would make a solid cyclops as well. The Electric Mayhem as sirens would be a fun bit. I think most of the crew should be non specific Muppets so they can get comically killed off left and right. Scooter will be the only one who sticks around and gradually climbs through the ranks throughout.

    Gonzo should be Menelaus so we can have Camilla be Helen.

    The Muppets needs more women to make this all work, Miss Piggy's hostility towards female co stars has its detrimental.

    FUCKING ROLF AS ARGOS BUT HE'S HAS FULL CONVERSATIONS WITH KERMIT TO UPDATE HIM ON THE SUITOR THING

    Use it. Circe or Calypso is played by that other girl pig they introduced for the short lived The Office like TV show they made a couple years back.

    The Cyclops is so obviously Sweetums I don't know how you're even suggesting anyhing else.

    The Sirens are Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem.

    Menelaus and Helen are Gonzo and Camilla
