Variety reports that Ray Liotta, who actually made a brief appearance as a guard in 1999's Muppets From Space, has joined the cast of James Bobin's The Muppets sequel. His role in the sequel (which was penned by Bobin and Nicholas Stoller) is being kept under wraps at the moment.

Wow. Gervais even laughs at his own jokes on Twitter? He's funny, but very hard to like.

I've never liked Ray Liotta, but I do enjoy his honey:
