The Muppet Show: The Muppets Movie Coming Thanksgiving 2011

by Trevor Kimball, December 9, 2010

Muppet movieThe Muppets feature film, directed by Jason Segel, was originally slated to be released next Christmas but the studio has moved it up a month. There have been tons of rumors about various cameos and the Disney press release confirms a few of them.

Based on the press release, it seems like it will be called The Muppet Movie. That seems unlikely though since that’s the same title as the characters’ first foray onto the big screen back in 1979. The title has previously been reported as The Greatest Muppet Movie of All Time!!!

DISNEY TO RELEASE NEW MUPPETS MOVIE THANKSGIVING 2011

BURBANK, Calif. – December 8, 2010 – The Walt Disney Studios announced today that it has moved the release date for its upcoming The Muppets Movie to November 23, 2011. Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie the Bear, Gonzo, Animal and the rest of the gang will reunite in theaters just in time for the 2011 Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

“Disney has had incredible success opening films over the Thanksgiving weekend, and thanks to Tangled, we have the top three Thanksgiving openers of all time,” said Chuck Viane, president of global distribution for Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. “I have spoken with The Muppets, and we all agreed this comedy is a great fit for the holiday 2011 time frame.”

The Muppets star alongside Jason Segel, Amy Adams, Chris Cooper, and Rashida Jones. The movie will feature cameos by Alan Arkin, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Billy Crystal, Wanda Sykes, and more surprise appearances. The feature film, currently shooting in Los Angeles, was written by Segel and Nicholas Stoller, and is being directed by James Bobin.

Commenting on the new release date, Miss Piggy noted “it was actually moi’s idea to open the movie then,” stating she wants to give everyone a big reason to give thanks next Thanksgiving. “It doesn’t get any bigger than moi…. And don’t you dare quote that out of context!”

What do you think? Do you plan on seeing the Muppet movie? Will you see it as soon as it’s released or wait until it’s on DVD?

Just hope that Disney doesn’t ruin this like they do with other work they get their hands on.
