Tina Fey Talks Future Plans Backstage at SAG Awards: Muppets, Steve Carell, More 30 Rock Nerds

Actor-winning comic looks forward to future geeks finding her retiring sitcom, plus joining cast of The Muppets sequel

Tina Fey has seen Liz Lemon's future—and it's kinda geeky.

The 30 Rock creator and star, speaking to reporters backstage at the 19th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, where she won Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Comedy Series, said she's looking forward to "another generation of nerds finding" the acclaimed sitcom in reruns.

30 Rock is set to air its final episode on Thursday.

Fey's got plans for Fey, too. 

The actress said she's set to begin filming a sequel to the 2011 Muppet reboot, The Muppets, in March in London.

In the summer, she said, she'll reteam with Date Night spouse Steve Carell in the big-screen comedy, Mail-Order Groom.

Fey also talked of developing a new TV series, although it was unclear whether she intended to remain behind the scenes, or go back in front of the camera for that potential project. (Oh, and earlier tonight she seemed pretty optimistic about the Mean Girls musical!)

As for now, Fey is just happy. Looking at her Actor statuette, she said, "This was just a really lovely surprise."
