===Canceled feature film===
In September 2005, The Jim Henson Company announced it was working on a film adaptation of ''Fraggle Rock'', known as ''Fraggle Rock: The Movie'', with the aim of a release in 2009. The story allegedly involves the original Fraggle characters.<ref>

In October 2006, Darkhorizons.com reported "Henson's company has hired executive producer [[Ahmet Zappa]] (''The Monstrous Memoirs of a Mighty McFearless'') to write a treatment for the film which will be a full-length live-action musical fantasy starring the underground dwellers who venture out into the human world. Henson Co. co-topper [[Lisa Henson]] is producing, whilst Brian Henson will exec produce."

In May 2008, [[The Weinstein Company]] announced it would distribute the ''Fraggle Rock'' movie. The film was written as a live-action musical by [[Cory Edwards]], who would also direct. The film was to be produced by The Jim Henson Company; Ahmet Zappa was executive producing along with Brian Inerfeld. The film would involve all of the core characters from the series. The story would take the characters "outside of their home in Fraggle Rock, where they interact with humans, which they think are aliens."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://variety.com/2008/film/features/weinsteins-roll-with-fraggle-rock-1117985529/|title=Weinsteins roll with 'Fraggle Rock'|date=May 13, 2008 }}</ref> [[Karen Prell]] and [[Dave Goelz]] were slated to return for the film as Red Fraggle, Boober Fraggle, and Uncle Traveling Matt, respectively.

In 2011, Weinstein's deal with Henson expired, leaving the production of the film in doubt. The [[Scissor Sisters]] were announced to write music for the film. In October 2011, [[Regency Enterprises|New Regency]] acquired the rights to the movie to be produced by The Jim Henson Company and [[The Montecito Picture Company]], with [[20th Century Fox]] distributing. New Regency and the producers were in discussion of whether to use puppets or CGI as well as a mix of live-action. Once this has been decided, it will look to a writer for the movie.<ref>{{cite news|last=Fleming |first=Mike |url=https://deadline.com/2011/10/new-regency-lands-fraggle-rock-feature-rights-auction-188487/ |title=New Regency Lands 'Fraggle Rock' Feature Rights Auction |website=[[Deadline Hollywood]] |publisher=[[Penske Media Corporation]] |access-date=January 15, 2014}}</ref>
