Matt Vogel

Matt Vogel is an American puppeteer and director best known as Kermit the Frog, a role he took over from Steve Whitmire in 2017, and as Big Bird and Count von Count on Sesame Street.

His other Muppet characters include Floyd Pepper, Uncle Deadly, Sweetums, Lew Zealand and Crazy Harry, and he played Constantine, Kermit's criminal look-alike, in Muppets Most Wanted. His Kermit in the 2026 special The Muppet Show earned the first Emmy nomination for voicing the character.

Born in Kansas City, Kansas in 1970, he joined Sesame Street in 1996 as an ensemble puppeteer and understudy for Big Bird, and became the full-time Big Bird performer after Caroll Spinney retired in 2018.
