Announced in September 2025, the special reunites the Muppets on the original Muppet Theatre and Deadline reported it serves as a backdoor pilot for a potential ongoing series.
Produced by 20th Television, Disney Branded Television, The Muppets Studio and Point Grey Pictures, the special is directed by Alex Timbers with executive producers Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, James Weaver, and Alex McAtee, featuring veteran performers including Bill Barretta and Dave Goelz.
The trailer opens with Kermit the Frog walking past a wall of fame and shows comic mishaps like Beaker electrocuting himself while Kermit admits `we're still working out a few kinks.`
The original series' global reach and awards underscore the franchise's cultural weight, as all five seasons stream on Disney+ and the original aired in over 100 countries with Emmy, Grammy, Peabody and BAFTA awards.
