Disney+ has officially greenlit a one-off Muppet Show special, with special guest Sabrina Carpenter.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sabrina Carpenter will be a special guest in the Muppets Pilot<\/p>\n

Developed by Point Grey Pictures – the production company helmed by Seth Rogen<\/a> and Evan Goldberg – the project is titled Muppets Pilot and is being positioned as a launchpad for a potential series reboot, Deadline reports.<\/p>\n

Disney+ officially confirmed the project on their social media accounts, posting to X: \u201cIt\u2019s time to play the music, it\u2019s time to light the lights, it\u2019s time to get things started as The Muppet Show returns for a triumphant event on Disney+ in 2026 with special guest star @SabrinaCarpenter!<\/p>\n

\u201cThis brand-new installment from The Muppets Studio and Point Grey Pictures will feature Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy<\/a>, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo, and the gang as they return to the Muppet Theatre to put on a variety show filled with music, comedy, and plenty of chaos.\u201d<\/p>\n

Should the special strike the right chord with audiences, it could usher in a fresh chapter for Kermit, Miss Piggy<\/a>, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo, and the rest of the beloved ensemble.<\/p>\n

\nCarpenter, who also steps into an executive producer role, will join the iconic puppet cast in a mix of backstage shenanigans, sketch segments, and musical performances that pay homage to the original show.<\/p>\n

\nBack in 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Carpenter appeared virtually with Rogen to perform The Muppet Show Theme song for The Disney Family Singalong: Volume II.<\/p>\n

\nProduction is set to take place in Los Angeles, boosted by a $1.6 million tax incentive from the California Film Commission. The special is a collaborative effort between 20th Television, Disney Branded Television, The Muppets Studio, and Point Grey Pictures, with Albertina Rizzo penning the script and Alex Timbers directing.<\/p>\n

\nLongtime Muppet performers – including Bill Barretta, Dave Goelz, Eric Jacobson, Peter Linz, David Rudman, and Matt Vogel – are confirmed to reprise their roles.<\/p>\n

\nOriginally launched in 1976, The Muppet Show ran for five seasons and became a cultural touchstone thanks to its blend of celebrity cameos, musical acts, and offbeat humour.<\/p>\n
