TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - A sequel to The Simpsons Movie is officially in production and scheduled for a summer 2027 release. After a nearly 20-year hiatus, Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie are confirmed to make a grand return to theaters, earning loud cheers from fans around the world.
The sequel, which teased its arrival with a new poster reading, “Homer’s coming back for seconds,” will take the place of a previously untitled Marvel project on Disney's schedule.
Release Dates of The Simpsons Movie Sequel
On Monday, September 29, Disney and 20th Century Studios made a surprise announcement on their official Instagram: “Woohoo! The Simpsons are coming to theaters with an all-new movie on July 23, 2027!”
The news quickly broke the internet, with many fans raving their excitement towards the global icons of everyone’s childhoods. Though twenty years have passed since the first film's theatrical debut, the Simpson family still receives the same affection from fans around the world.
Plot Details of The Simpsons Movie Sequel
The original 2007 PG-13 film was a box-office success, garnering more than $536 million worldwide and earning nominations for Best Animated Film at the BAFTA Awards, Critics' Choice Awards, and the Golden Globes. With multiple success stories lining up, The Simpsons Movie Sequel is headed in a promising direction.
However, aside from the social media poster, "Homer's coming back for seconds," Disney and 20th Century have released no further details. In the meantime, fans are left anticipating how Homer and his family will navigate life in their beloved town of Springfield in the upcoming The Simpsons Movie Sequel.
The Original Film of The Simpsons Movie
Directed by David Silverman, the 2007 The Simpsons Movie followed the confinement of Springfield residents under a massive glass dome due to excessive pollution in the town's lake. The big-screen adaptation of Fox’s long-running animated project was a phenomenal success despite having a budget of US$75 million.
The success of the original film not only proved that the Simpson family could thrive on the silver screen but also cemented their status as timeless cultural icons.
With two decades of anticipation, the sequel promises to rekindle the signature humor, satire, and heart that made the franchise beloved across generations, while offering fans a nostalgic yet refreshing cinematic experience.
