Fey will be playing a Russian gulag prison guard
The part is one of three key human roles in the film--Modern Family star Ty Burrell will play the key role of an Interpol official--Christoph Waltz was originally in talks for that part--Ricky Gervais is playing a character with questionable intentions. There's also likely going to be a number of celebrity cameos.
This would mark the second time that Gervais and Fey have worked together after they worked in The Invention of Lying.
It sounds like this film will take some of its story beats from "The Great Muppet Caper".
The Muppets human star/co-writer Jason Segel, will not be returning for the follow-up, but director James Bobin is coming back. Bobin co-wrote the script with Nicholas Stoller.
David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman are producing the pic.
The production slated to start this winter in London
