Sacagawea was first seen in the film Night at the Museum, her exhibit can be found in the Museum of Natural History, New York. In her exhibit she is seen along side Lewis and Clark during their expedition across America.

Rebecca Hutman, the museums receptionist, is writing a book on Sacagawea but feels like she doesn't know a lot about her. It is revealed that she is a big fan and would give anything to meet her in the flesh. Theodore Roosevelt (Teddy), the President of the United States, secretly stalks Sacagawea due to his strong feelings for her.

At the end of the film, Larry Daley, breaks the glass window which ran across her exhibit.

Sacagawea introduces herself Rebecca and gives all the information she needs for her book.
