Muppet Guys Talking — Trailer

added: Fri, Mar 2nd '18

Filmmaker and famed puppeteer Frank Oz has assembled together some of the original Muppet performers for a sit-down round-table interview. And lucky for us, he filmed it for posterity.

Check out the new official trailer for Oz's first-ever documentary "Muppet Guys Talking," an in-depth, informative, and career-spanning conversation among five veteran Muppet puppeteers, which includes Oz himself (the performer behind Grover, Bert, Cookie Monster, Miss Piggy, etc), Jerry Nelson (Count Von Count, Mr. Snuffleupagus, etc), Fran Brill (Betty Lou, Prairie Dawn, Little Bird, etc.), Dave Goelz (The Great Gonzo, Bunsen Honeydew, etc), and Bill Barretta (Pepe the King Prawn, Bobo the Bear, etc.).

The chitchat also includes light-hearted anecdotes of Sesame Street's early years as well as poignant stories about working for the legendary Muppets creator Jim Henson.

"Muppet Guys Talking" will premiere online on March 16th, available only at MuppetGuysTalking.com.
