Moviefone is a movie information service that launched in 1989. The service was initially telephone-based, with the automated voice of "Mr. Moviefone" (Russ Leatherman) providing movie timetables and ticket information. By 2014, the call-in service had been discontinued in favor of online listings, and the company began producing its own original film-related content.
The Muppets have appeared on Moviefone Unscripted to promote their theatrical outings in 2011 and 2014.
