I’ll see if my wife wants to check that out. She loves her some Danny Trejo.
What a great actor. He’s been a favorite of the Muppets since 2011 when he had a role in Muppets Most Wanted. His mother passed away while he was filming that movie, and he told a sad but wonderful story about how he couldn’t properly grieve for his mother until Kermit gave his condolences.
“Wow, that's an experience. You know what, when I was doing
Muppets Most Wanted, I was in England. And The Muppets, you don't talk to The Muppets if they're laying down. You can't take pictures with them; you can only take a picture if they're up. There's rules for them. And my mom passed away while I was doing
Muppets Most Wanted. I had about three, four or five days left in England. I was leaving. I'd just called my agent to say my mom's gone, then Mary, my secretary, called me and said, 'Don't! Stay there. You'll get in the way. We're planning this, we're doing this.' So I stayed, and everybody was coming up and saying 'Hey, Danny…’ and I have a way of kind of shutting down, you know? Not feeling nothing, like 'Yeah, it's okay,' and kind of pushing everybody away and just doing what I had to do. And then that [censored] frog. [Laughs.] Kermit comes up and goes, 'Danny, I'm really sorry about your mom.' And just like that - [whistles] - I broke for the bathroom, like 'Oh no!”
