Ya girl Melissa McCarthy is at it again — and by “it” we mean making another comedy with her husband / director Ben Falcone.

The Happytime Murders is an R-rated comedic murder mystery that imagines a Los Angeles where humans and Henson-like puppets somehow coexist. It’s been in the works since 2008, with a number of people joining and then leaving as the project foundered. A year ago, Jamie Foxx was attached to star, but he left the project. Now, Melissa McCarthy is leading the project, and her Bridesmaids co-star Maya Rudolph joined up this week to help solve crime.

Actors often use real-life people for inspiration when working on a movie, but even we were surprised when Melissa McCarthy revealed she based her performance in 'Bridesmaids' on TV personality Guy Fieri.
