"It's going to be great to welcome back longtime fans, and to give a new generation of fans a chance to see how we got our start, how Miss Piggy became a star and so much more," Kermit the Frog previously said in a statement. "Today, I'm proud to say: 'It's time to play the music, light the lights and meet the Muppets on Disney Plus tonight!' And as for Statler and Waldorf, the two old guys in the balcony, I can only add: 'Sorry, guys, but....here we go again."

This isn't the only project in the works at Disney based on the company's theme park attraction of the same name. It was recently announced that a new Haunted Mansion movie is in development with Tiffany Haddish, Lakeith Stanfield, Owen Wilson, and Rosario Dawson in starring roles. A previous live-action movie was released in 2003 which starred Eddie Murphy.

The Muppet Show has also been rebooted with the new series Muppets Now on Disney+. Consisting of six episodes, the show premiered on the streamer last year. The show does include Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, Gonzo, and all of the other familiar Muppets, though some fans have been critical about the change in Kermit the Frog's voice.

Muppets Haunted Mansion will premiere on Disney+ on Friday, Oct. 8. You can also watch classic episodes of The Muppet Show on the streaming service.
