First Trailer For 'The Muppets' Disguised As Romantic Comedy

The first trailer for 'The Muppets' starts out as a romantic comedy Amy Adams and Jason Segel.

But with characters like Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy, it's no chick flick.

Here's the real description for the film: "On vacation in Los Angeles, Walter, the world's biggest Muppet fan, and his friends Gary (Jason Segel) and Mary (Amy Adams) from Smalltown, USA, discover the nefarious plan of oilman Tex Richman (Chris Cooper) to raze the Muppet Theater and drill for the oil recently discovered beneath the Muppets' former stomping grounds."

"To stage The Greatest Muppet Telethon Ever and raise the $10 million needed to save the theater, Walter, Mary and Gary help Kermit reunite the Muppets, who have all gone their separate ways: Fozzie now performs with a Reno casino tribute band called the Moopets, Miss Piggy is a plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, Animal is in a Santa Barbara clinic for anger management, and Gonzo is a high-powered plumbing magnate."

Disney's 'The Muppets' has a release date of November 23, 2011.
