“Kermit the frog here!”

With his famous line, Kermit the Frog is back in town with the Muppets in the new movie “Muppets Most Wanted.”

Kermit the Frog, Fonzie Bear, Gonzo, Animal and Miss Piggy set out overseas to Europe. In this avid adventure, the Muppets will be visiting destinations such as Berlin, Madrid and London.

During their luxurious vacation, they find themselves caught up in an international crime, heading face to face with the Constantine, the number one criminal who looks strikingly similar to Kermit the Frog.

The movie, which is a follow up of “The Muppets” released in 2011, is also showcasing new celebrity appearances like Tina Fey, Ty Burrell and Ricky Gervais.

“Muppets Most Wanted” is directed by James Bobin, produced by David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman. It’s set to be released on March 21.
