MUPPETS MOST WANTED Teaser Trailer

Disney released the first teaser for its upcoming Muppets sequel titled Muppets Most Wanted, which stars Ricky Gervais, Tina Fey, and Ty Burrell.  In the film, Kermit gets mistaken for a jewel thief named Constantine while the gang is on a tour in Europe.

This first teaser makes the film look geared more for kids than the previous film, although that could just be how the trailer is cut.  James Bobin returns to direct, so maybe it won’t be as bad as this video makes it out to be.  Check it out after the jump.

Disney’s “Muppets Most Wanted” takes the entire Muppets gang on a global tour, selling out grand theaters in some of Europe’s most exciting destinations, including Berlin, Madrid and London. But mayhem follows the Muppets overseas, as they find themselves unwittingly entangled in an international crime caper headed by Constantine—the World’s Number One Criminal and a dead ringer for Kermit—and his dastardly sidekick Dominic, aka Number Two, portrayed by Ricky Gervais, creator of “Derek” and the Golden Globe®- and Emmy®-winning series “The Office” and “Extras.” The film stars Golden Globe-, Emmy- and SAG Award®-winning actress and writer Tina Fey (“30 Rock,” “Mean Girls,” “Date Night”) as Nadya, a feisty prison guard, and Emmy Award winner Ty Burrell (TV’s “Modern Family”) as Interpol agent Jean Pierre Napoleon.
