Disney’s 20th Century Studios has officially confirmed that a sequel to *The Simpsons Movie* is in development. The new film is slated to be released on July 23, 2027, replacing an unnamed Marvel project that was removed from Disney’s schedule. This change creates a gap in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with no new comic book movie planned between *Avengers: Doomsday* (December 18, 2026) and *Avengers: Secret Wars* (December 17, 2027).
**Announcement Details**
On September 29, 20th Century Studios excited fans with a social media post featuring an animated image of Homer’s hand reaching for a pink donut shaped like the number “2”. The caption read:
*“Woohoo! The Simpsons are coming to theaters with an all-new movie on July 23, 2027!”*
This highly anticipated sequel comes nearly 20 years after the original film premiered in 2007.
**Release Date Clash**
The scheduled release date for the new *Simpsons* movie coincides with Warner Bros.’ animated musical *Bad Fairies*, which may lead to a box-office showdown, according to *The Hollywood Reporter*. As of now, plot details and character information for the sequel have not been disclosed.
**The First Movie’s Success**
*The Simpsons Movie* was a major hit, grossing over $536 million worldwide and earning $74 million during its opening weekend alone, proving the enduring popularity of this iconic franchise.
**About ‘The Simpsons’**
Created by Matt Groening, *The Simpsons* is the longest-running animated sitcom in American television history. The series has been renewed for its 40th season, scheduled to premiere in 2028.
The first movie, directed by David Silverman, centered around Homer Simpson accidentally contaminating Springfield’s lake, which led to the entire town being trapped under a giant dome.
For fans looking to revisit the original film, it is currently available to watch on JioHotstar.
Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming *Simpsons* movie as they become available!
