Kermit Discussed New ‘Muppets Now’ Show On Recent DVC Cruise
With less than a week to go before “Muppets Now” debuts on Disney+, Disney Parks blog is sharing a special clip of Kermit the Frog discussing the show on stage last October aboard the Disney Vacation Club Member Cruise and we are excited to share these awesome details with you.
The interview that we’ll show below took place at the Walt Disney Theater aboard the Disney Magic and presented a rare opportunity for Disney Vacation Club members to see Muppets and their human perform together on stage. The human working with Kermit in this video is Matt Vogel also performed with the Electric Mayhem’s Floyd, the boomerang-fish-slinging Lwe Zealand (who threw fish into the crowd) as well as Uncle Deadly who even performed the song “Grim-Grinning Ghosts” as spoken word poetry!
During the interview, the camera crew filmed tights shots shown on big screens in the theaters so viewers could enjoy not only seeing the character with their handler but could also look at how they would appear on TV or cinema screens. The overall effect was the same that you would get if you were on the scenes of a Muppets Studio production except this one was in the middle of the ocean!
During the clip we’ll share with you below, Kermit gives Disney Vacation Club Members a sneak peek at “Muppets Now,” which was in the earliest stages of production. You’ll see that he runs into a little trouble with the studio’s legal department, proving once again that stars are just like us.
For another inside look at “Muppets Now” before it starts streaming, here’s the video call during in which Kermit shared the good news with the gang that Disney+ had given their series the green light. (Watch out for more meddling by their “legal weasel.”)
