Muppets to the City

The Muppets in Operation: New York is a 2020 American musical comedy film directed by James Bobin and Kirk Thatcher, and distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. It stars The Muppets in their first theatrical film since 2014's Muppets Most Wanted, alongside Jesse Eisenberg and the voice of Mark Hamill.

In a plot somewhat similar to 1984's The Muppets Take Manhattan, the Muppets travel to New York to stage one last Muppet Show. Unbeknownst to them, an enemy from Kermit's past returns with avengeance, and it's up to the frog and his friends to put a stop to him once and for all. Along the way, the Muppets reunite with several friends from their past, including several retired characters from The Muppet Show; several characters from Muppets Tonight; Kermit's old friends from Sam and Friends; the cast of the Jim Henson Hour, Kermit's childhood friends from Kermit's Swamp Years; even Skeeter, Scooter's twin sister from Muppet Babies (in her first official appearance in puppet form, and as an adult).

The film also features appearances by Amy Adams, Jack Black, Jim Carrey, Charles Grodin, Chris Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, Ricky Gervais, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Dave Grohl, Neil Patrick Harris, Bobby Moynihan, Jason Segel, Jeffrey Tambor, Danny Trejo, Paul Williams, Sesame Street's Bert and Ernie, and others.
