Jim Henson's beloved creations are back in action!

Fans found out recently that an all-new spin on The Muppet Show is coming soon, premiering on ABC and Disney+ Feb. 4. And now, a wonderfully chaotic teaser trailer has been released to promote the highly anticipated special.

Among the highlights from the Disney trailer's tight 30-second runtime is the star talent everyone's waiting to see (besides Kermit the Frog): Sabrina Carpenter. Watch as she mingles with the characters and gives a pep talk to a fellow pop-culture sensation she's seen matching with on-camera: Miss Piggy.

"You are an icon," Carpenter, 26, tells the infamous Muppet, presumably in the moments before a big performance. In her signature humor, Miss Piggy then replies, "You're too sweet... Go on."

Another big name also graces the teaser: Seth Rogen, who also serves as one of the special's executive producers. "It's always been a dream of mine to be here," the Emmy winner, 43, says to another character, which then quips, "Ooh... got any other dreams?"

Fans seem generally in favor of what's in store for The Muppet Show, filling the comments section of Disney+ and Rogen's recent joint Instagram post with their support. "Sabrina and Muppets is truly the most iconic crossover," wrote one user, while another person commented, "sabrina and miss piggy most perfect duo we never knew we needed!!!"

"Music, comedy, and a whole lot of chaos is bound to ensue when The Muppets once again take the stage of the original Muppet Theatre," the caption of Disney Plus' YouTube post on Friday, Jan. 2 reads, giving fans a bit more context as to what's ahead.

The Muppet Show isn't first time fans get to see Carpenter interact with Miss Piggy. During one of her Short n’ Sweet Tour shows, the Grammy-winning singer actually "arrested" the beloved Muppet.

“I get really flustered when I’m around you,” Carpenter told her at the concert. “You’re like the only celebrity that makes me really like nervous to be around. It’s like, I’m getting really overwhelmed.”
