The Simpsons Movie 2 Announced for 2027

A sequel to the 2007 movie is officially on the way at Disney’s 20th Century Studios with a release date planned for July 23, 2027.

After almost two decades a new Simpsons movie is on the way. Plot details are still unknown at this time but a poster has been revealed showing Homer’s hand reaching for a donut. A sequel of course has long been rumored with show developer James L. Brooks saying Fox Studios had approached him in 2014 about making a second Simpsons feature.

Interestingly, the sequel will take the slot of what was previously allocated to an untitled Marvel movie. That means it’s very likely there will be no Marvel movies between Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.

The Simpsons is the longest running animated sitcom series on television. It started in 1989 and as of this date 791 episodes for the series have been made. It’s 40th season is set to air between 2028 and 2029. The show was created by Matt Groening and shows the lives of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie in the fictional town of Springfield. The characters first appeared in shorts in 1987 before getting their own series. Their first feature film was released in the summer of 2007. It was a critical and commercial success grossing over $530 million globally.
