We talk to Amy Adams, the voice behind Mary, the newest member of the Muppet family that races to save the day in the soon-to-be-released film

How did you get involved in Disney's The Muppets?
Jason [Segel] and Kermit [the Frog] sent me an invitation to be in Disney's The Muppets ufffdthey asked if I'd read the script and consider the role of Mary. Kermit was a big part of my decision. I don't like to tell Jason this because he's a little sensitive about me being partial to Kermit, but I am. I play Gary's girlfriend. She's a shop teacher. She puts up with Gary and Walter who are best friends and brothers, and at times that relationship can seem more important than Mary and Gary.

What is the movie about?
The Muppets begins with a new Muppet, Walter, who is very cute. Walter, Gary and Mary set out on this trip to LA ufffd they each have different hopes of what this trip will bring. When they get there, they take a tour of the Muppet studio and find it abandoned. Tex Richmond, an evil oil baron, is planning on tearing it down and drilling for oil. Walter finds out about this plan and they make it their purpose to get the Muppets back together to put on a show. They find Kermit and that's where the adventure begins. Fozzie is in Reno. Kermit's a bit of a recluse. Miss Piggy is the plus-size fashion editor at Vogue Paris, and Gonzo is a very successful plumbing agent.
