Lady Gaga will usher in the holiday season with The Muppets.

“Lady Gaga & the Muppets’ Holiday Spectacular” will air on ABC on November 28, the night of Thanksgiving, it was announced on Thursday.

Gaga and her felt friends will be joined by some big-named guest stars, including Elton John, Kristen Bell, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and RuPaul.

“I was so excited when ABC called me about doing a holiday special this year. I knew it just wouldn’t be a complete night of laughter and memories without the Muppets,” the singer said in a statement.

Added Kermit, “What an incredible opportunity! We have a long history with Ms. Gaga, so we jumped at the chance to do a holiday special with her. We won’t even mind if she mistakes some of the Muppets for pieces of her wardrobe — again.”

According to ABC, the special will offer an “avant-garde twist on the classic holiday variety show as Lady Gaga goes backstage with The Muppets, making a performance dream come true for the multi-platinum singer songwriter when they combine forces to sing holiday favorites and Lady Gaga hits.”

Gaga, who will perform tracks from her new ARTPOP album, infamously took Kermit as her date to the 2009 VMAs, and has incorporated the classic characters into both her wardrobe and concert tours.

She also hosted “A Very Gaga Thanksgiving” on the network in 2011.

Ricky Gervais is reportedly in talks to star in a sequel to The Muppets.

The actor and comedian is negotiating to be the follow-up movie’s human lead, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

His role would reportedly be comparable in stature to the part played by Jason Segel in the 2011 movie, which also starred Amy Adams and Chris Cooper.

The Muppets sequel script is being kept under wraps, and Gervais’ potential character has not been identified.

It’s believed that the film will be centered in Europe this time around, with “Modern Family” star Ty Burrell already attached.

Gossip Cop is looking into how advanced the talks are, and will have updates.
