French Muppets[]
Parking info and images originally on Les Muppets (Canada), since there's confusion between the two dubs (we have no info on the France dub yet).
"Les Muppets is the French dub of The Muppets. The film was originally going to be released to theaters on February 15, 2012, but it was changed to April 11, 2012. Shortly afterwards, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures France announced that the film will not be shown in French cinemas, but through their home entertainment division, Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment France, it will be available on DVD and Blu-Ray on May 2, 2012 under the title Les Muppets, le retour."

Is Israel really getting it a year later? -- Ken (talk) 04:50, September 19, 2011 (UTC)
- No, that was a typo. It should read December 8, 2011. Fixed. -- Brad D. (talk) 01:54, September 30, 2011 (UTC)
Disney are pulling the plug[]
Apparently Disney have decided that The Muppets should not run in cinemas in Norway. From what I've heard the movie has also been pulled from Denmark, but the various cinemas still have it listed so I'm unsure about that. So far theres no word if the same will happen in Sweden.

- Just got confirmation from Disney Nordic that the movie won't be in Danish cinemas, the fate have yet to be decided for the remaining Nordic countries Henrik (talk) 20:41, January 8, 2012 (UTC)
- Did they say why they've decided to not show it in Denmark? I just find it odd that such a thing would occur, unless there was a specific reason (i.e.: something in the movie offending the Danish, but I can't imagine what if that were the case)
- I did find release dates for other countries:
- Malaysia - December 8, 2011
- Hong Kong - January 19, 2012
- South Africa - January 27, 2012 (source: Disney SA website)
- Philippines - February 1, 2012
- Switzerland - February 2, 2012 (German-speaking region)
- February 3, 2012 (Ticino)
- Greece - February 2, 2012
- Indonesia - January 2012 (date hasn't been announced yet, but it's been stated by Disney Indonesia's Youtube channel)
- Korea - February 16, 2012 (source: Disney Korea website)
- There's also a page on Facebook for Disney fans in Thailand with news on upcoming movies and other stuff, and it says that the film will be shown in Thailand on March 21, although I'm not sure if this is official yet. The official Disney Thailand site doesn't have a page for it, but then again, it's hardly ever updated (they don't even mention the re-release of Beauty and the Beast on their site, yet the Facebook site does. Just goes to show that getting release dates for movies overseas can be very tricky; Often, an "official" source like a local cineplex's website or a studio's website outside of the US will confirm that a movie will be released in that country. But for a movie like The Muppets in this case, those sources don't mention the film, yet others like a Facebook page will. And quite often movie schedules can and will change overtime without us knowing.

- I also read somewhere that the film will premiere in Russia in February, but I haven't been able to look more into that. But like I said, these things do get complicated. MasterYoshi 16:48, January 13, 2012 (UTC)
- Just got another overseas release date: Vietnam, January 20, 2012. I have some international posters I've found, which I'll add at some point later. MasterYoshi
- Now it looks like France is pulling the plug as well. Source MasterYoshi 15:23, February 22, 2012 (UTC)
