Without Frank Oz , there likelynever would have been a Yoda , or at leasta Yoda that would have been memorable enoughto inspireThe Mandolorian to loose the Child upon the world . On some story , Oz has to know this , but that does n’t mean that he ’s feel much of a desire to get to experience anything about the teeny outer space pixie .
In a recentinterview with Indiewire , Oz share his thoughts on Baby Yoda ’s popularity — which come to a very diplomatical “ gown , beautiful surgical gown . ” Oz made of point of clarifying that he ’s had nothing to do with the fictitious character ’s Book of Genesis , but he understands why citizenry areobsessed with it , and why the company that create it is for sure go to keep it around .
“ I have nothing to do with Baby Yoda , ” Oz said . “ But I heard it ’s very precious , and I ’m sure Disney has a whole plan for it . ”

Beyond his graceful Baby Yoda shade , Oz also mused about the agony and ecstasy that amount with being a noted part of The Muppets ’ account . Much as he wants people to understand that he ’s more than just the voice of Miss Piggy and Fozzie Bear , Oz explained that he still restrain a deep love for the characters , and has been biz to the melodic theme the multiple Muppet reunion that Disney has manifestly charge down despite the fact that the companyplans to bring the character back in a fresh serial . But Oz was also unhesitating in his notion that whatever Disney does next with the prop needs to honor the spirit Jim Henson wanted to define the original serial . To do otherwise , Oz sound out , would be a big mistake .
“ It has to be the Muppets , ” Oz enunciate . “ If we call it something else , it would still have the same spirit as Jim , and we could n’t disguise it as something else . Look at all these shows that rip off the Muppets . Which of them have profit the popularity of the Muppets ? They have n’t , and there are reason for that . It comes from one gentleman’s gentleman . ”

That all being said , Oz recognizes that darling franchises he was a part of earlier do n’t require his involvement in order tocontinue to be excellent . Take , for case , Netflix ’s The Dark Crystal : Age of Resistance , which threw himfor a loop .
“ I was so sunnily surprised , ” Oz said . “ I thought they did it with care , there was a lot of thought behind it , and they open it up . I was very pleased . They did a large job . ”
We should all be so lucky to endure like Frank Oz , unbothered , unstressed , and deeply unconcerned with whatever it is that the new Kid on the cube are up to .
