Though Bo Burnham is on a trajectory of being an auteur from directing comedy specials and Eighth Grade, going away from his past of doing meticulously crafted songs, it would seem that the allure of the latest Sesame Street feature film adaption proved too strong. 

It’s definitely an intriguing wrinkle to this Sesame Street movie, especially when you have Jonathan Krisel, whose work you know from Portlandia and Baskets, attached as director.

So, possibly, we could be getting a very cinematic, very meta Sesame Street movie coming soon to theaters?
