Max is a supporting character and the false secondary antagonist of The Muppet Movie.
Biography[]
Max was the right-hand of Doc Hopper, a crazy man who wanted to use Kermit for his fried frog commercials. Max started as an anti-villain okay with following Doc's orders and doing the frog commercials, but he started to break ties with Doc as Doc fell further and further into extremism.
Max is shocked to see that Doc has hired lots of professional frog killers on Kermit, and disguises as a motorcycle cop to warn Kermit about Doc. However, Kermit asks Max to tell the villains to meet Kermit at a wild-west town, and he reluctantly agrees, again pretending to be on the villains' side.
In the last showdown, Kermit asks Doc is he has any friends. Doc says he has lots of friends, like Max, but Max says no, he is not Doc's friend. Max cheers as the muppets win the showdown, and runs away.
