Disney releases official plot synopsis for 2011 Muppet movie

Courtesy of The Muppets Studio
December 9, 2010

While rumors have been circulating for well over a year. today The Muppets Studio announced the following official plot synopsis for the new Muppet movie premiering Thanksgiving weekend 2011.

James Bobin (director), Jason Segel (co-writer/co-star), Nick Stoller (co-writer) and Bret McKenzie (composer) with the Muppets.

On vacation in Los Angeles, Walter, the world’s biggest Muppet fan, and his friends Gary (Jason Segel) and Mary (Amy Adams) from Smalltown, USA, discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman (Chris Cooper) to raze the Muppet Theater and drill for the oil recently discovered beneath the Muppets’ former stomping grounds.

To stage The Greatest Muppet Telethon Ever and raise the $10 million needed to save the theater, Walter, Mary and Gary help Kermit reunite the Muppets, who have all gone their separate ways: Fozzie now performs with a Reno casino house band called the Moopets, Miss Piggy is a plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, Animal is in a Santa Barbara clinic for anger management, and Gonzo is a high-powered plumbing magnate.

With secret, signature, celebrity cameos, The Muppets hits the big screen Nov. 23, 2011.
