Walter was named after the first puppet Jason Segel ever owned. In an interview at the World Premiere, Walter claims he was swimming laps at the Beverly Hills Hilton when a talent scout discovered him for the role (he was the only person he could find 18'' tall).

Disney paid Walter roughly the same amount as 67 movie tickets.

In a 2012 interview with Talk Nerdy, Walter revealed that his last name is Blagojevich (no known relation to Rod Blagojevich). However, he is known simply as "Walter" with the Screen Actors Guild.

Walter also appears in Muppets Most Wanted, where he was the only one - aside from Animal - who knew Kermit was acting weird when Constantine replaced him.

On Muppets Now, Walter hosted the "Muppet Masters" segments, discovering previously-unknown facets of notable Muppet characters.

In Muppets Haunted Mansion, Walter plays the ghostly role of one of Constance Hatchaway's murdered husbands, fondly remembering how tenderily she snapped his neck. The bowler hat he wears with his suit corresponds with Ambrose, the first of Constance's husbands in the attraction.
