Four other Muppet Show guests have played Inspector Clouseau at various times. Alan Arkin starred in the 1968 film Inspector Clouseau, Rich Little dubbed lines for a younger version of the character in Trail of the Pink Panther, Roger Moore played a version of Clouseau (after plastic surgery) in Curse of the Pink Panther, and most recently, Steve Martin played the latest incarnation of Inspector Clouseau in the 2006 film The Pink Panther and its 2008 sequel. Additionally, Peter Ustinov was originally cast in the part, but due to scheduling conflicts, the part went to Sellers.
