Jason Segel has worked with many funny actors and actresses, including Russell Brand, Kristin Bell, Emily Blunt, Paul Rudd, and Mila Kunis… but last month Segel shared his dream co-star with Us Weekly. And that would be former first lady and current Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton.

While speaking with the magazine, Segel said that Clinton had a knack for comedy and joked that Clinton is the mysterious mother in “How I Met Your Mother”.

Clinton caught wind of Segel’s interest in working with her, and responded with a sweet letter explaining why she couldn’t pursue a big-screen acting career alongside him.

"I was delighted to read about your interest in sharing the big screen with me. As you can imagine, I am a little occupied at the moment, but perhaps someday I can help you forget Sarah Marshall ... again. My only condition is that there be Muppets involved, and that is non-negotiable. In the meantime, you have my best wishes for continued success with your career."

Check Jason Segel out with a leading lady that doesn’t reject him in ‘The Five Year Engagement,” currently in theaters.
