About
You can stream The Muppet Movie (1979) on Disney+ with a subscription.
The Muppets gather to watch their newly-finished big-budget rich-and-famous feature film: a talent agent persuades Kermit the Frog to leave the swamp to pursue a career in Hollywood. On his way there, he meets a bear, a pig, a whatever (his future muppet crew), and some special celebrity guest stars, while being chased by the desperate owner of a frog-leg restaurant!
Kermit the Frog trades his quiet swamp life for the neon promise of Hollywood in this sprawling, felt-covered road trip. Alongside a chaotic band of musical misfits, he discovers that finding stardom is secondary to finding a family.
