The Jim Henson Company and Disney have teamed up to produce a biographical picture highlighting the life of Jim Henson, who created one of our most beloved TV shows growing up, The Muppets!

The project, titled ‘Muppet Man’, will focus on the challenges the animator faced as he endeavored to get the Muppets onto mainstream television. It is still unknown as to who will play Henson but the pioneering puppeteer’s daughter, Lisa Henson, will be producer for the film.
