Get Ready to Be “Green with Envy” Caleb Hamilton, May 23, 2011 Over the weekend, audiences who saw Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides were shown a trailer for a film called Green with Envy starring Amy Adams and Jason Segel as a young couple who take a romantic trip to Hollywood for their anniversary. But all is not what it seems, and Green with Envy seems to be a cover for another movie. Find out more after the jump!This film appears to be a romantic comedy, but why would it be advertised with a Disney movie like Pirates? Before you read on, watch the trailer below which debuted on YouTube today: http://youtu.be/6CloKbXtD28 So, Green with Envy is really Disney’s The Muppets. Disney presented this trailer in an interesting way, usually fake or working titles are used during filming to conceal the identity of high profile films (Rory’s Choice=The Dark Knight).
