Kermit the Frog leaves his swamp home after meeting a talent agent who tells him he has the potential to become a star. Setting off for Hollywood, Kermit embarks on a cross-country journey, gathering friends along the way—including Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, Gonzo, and others—while being pursued by a scheming businessman who wants to exploit Kermit’s fame. Filled with songs, celebrity cameos, and the Muppets’ trademark blend of humor and heart.
