Jenny Slate will voice Nanny in Disney's new Muppet Babies show
Disney announced its Muppet Babies reboot a few months ago—weirding us slightly out in the process with its Uncanny Valley take on the classic characters—but it’s been keeping the show’s casting under wraps. Today, though, the company revealed that it’ll be following, at least in part, the same formula it showed off with its recent Ducktales reboot, pairing its older audience’s nostalgic expectations with some beloved younger Hollywood voices. Hence, presumably, the casting of actress Jenny Slate as Nanny, the matriarch watching over the pint-sized versions of these various Henson characters.
