Amy Poehler, George Clooney, and Maya Rudolph Join Bill Murray and Sofia Coppola’s Christmas Special

Last year it was announced that Bill Murray was teaming up with Sofia Coppola for an upcoming Christmas TV special, and today THR reports that the project just added a few big stars. According to the report, George Clooney, Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, and Miley Cyrus will play versions of themselves in the special, which will follow the famously agent-less Murray as “he evades the advances of a shark dying to sign him.” The project hasn’t officially found a distributor yet, but it already sounds like the weirdest holiday special ever. Coppola told Variety in October that it won’t be live and will be “like a little movie. It won’t have a format, but it’s going to have music. It will have texture. It will have threads through it that are writing. There will be prose. It will have a patina style and wit to it. It will be nice. Not sure when it will air, but my motivation is to hear him singing my song requests.”
