WASHINGTON (AP) — The Muppets are heading to the White House.

Ahead of Thanksgiving, the White House will host a special screening for military families of “The Muppets” movie.

Guests at Tuesday’s screening will also include Kermit the Frog and Jason Segel, one of the stars of the movie.

The screening is the latest in a series of special invitations the White House has given to military families. President Barack Obama hosted military fathers and their children for a movie screening ahead of Father’s Day, and military families were invited to the White House for the annual Halloween celebration.
