The Simpsons Movie 2 Comes 20 Years Later
The Simpsons Movie 2 brings Springfield's family back to cinemas two decades after the first film. 20th Century Studios opens it in theaters 3 Sept 2027.
The Simpsons Movie 2 Comes 20 Years Later
The Simpsons will finally get their second movie. 20 years after the release of the first film, 20th Century Studios has announced that they will be making The Simpsons Movie 2 for release in 2027. The first film was released in 2007 and was released after the TV show had been airing for over 20 years.
While there was a follow-up discussed after the success of the first film, nothing came of it for many years. That finally changed in September 2025 when 20th Century Studios formally announced a second Simpsons movie.
The announcement created a frenzy among fans as they speculated about the potential of the new project. Things changed for the better in August 2026 at the D23 Expo when Disney confirmed the production of the film and gave it a tentative theatrical date of September 3, 2027, in the U.S.
Release in international markets including Brazil, will happen a day earlier. Things may change, but that's the status quo for now.
The studio changed the title of the project to The New Simpsons Movie from the working title of The Simpsons Movie 2.
For readers who encounter the movie through searches involving pikachu app download, the verified release is the official 20th Century Studios theatrical production.
We don't know for sure if this title is permanent.
In September 2026, showrunner and producer Matt Selman confirmed that the title was still working and they could change it in the future.
It is likely that both names will continue to show up online until the studio decides on a final title.
The project is still the second film based on the TV series The Simpsons.
Disney also showed some footage from the film at their D23 Expo.
There was a scene with Homer Simpson at a baseball game. A baseball, which is shown traveling through the stadium, sets off a series of events that engage the residents of Springfield and other locations.
Disney has not released an official synopsis for the film.
A lot of Springfield residents are expected to appear in the film as it did in the first movie.
We don't know who else will be on the voice cast for this movie.
Generations of actors have brought Homer, Marge, Bart, and Lisa to life on the big and small screen, most notably Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright, and Yeardley Smith.
However, 20th Century Studios has not officially revealed who will reprise their roles for the big screen return of The Simpsons.
Current IMDb page credits for the movie state there will be "additional voices."
Production databases are currently sparse with actors associated with the production.
It is best to wait for the studio's official announcement before confirming any performer is in the cast.
Old Friends and Veteran Producers are On Board
Matt Groening is back and so are several veteran producers including Al Jean, Richard Sakai, and Mike Scully.
Groening created the Simpsons and remains the franchise's central figure.
The production company behind the movie is 20th Century Animation and Gracie Films and 20th Century Studios will be distributing the film.
The movie is the official theatrical release and the only verified version. Searching for "pika show old version" does not make it legitimate.
No streaming release has been scheduled.
The story for the movie has been kept secret and the 2007 film's credits say it is a "prequel."
There's still no info on a new Simpsons villain, Springfield crisis, or guest star storylines.
The Simpsons footage shown at D23 could represent an important scene or it could be an early goofy scene.
Until the studio confirms important plot points, we can't say for sure what will happen in the movie.
Just like the first Simpsons movie, the creators can pull from decades of history and a large cast of characters to make a new movie.
The Simpsons Movie Sequel opens wide on September 3, 2027.
It's set to release in Brazil, Germany, Australia, Mexico and New Zealand on September 2, 2027.
Exactly twenty years prior The Simpsons Movie enjoyed box office success in 2007.
Not much is confirmed. The final title of the movie could still change. The complete voice cast could still change. The story could still change.
But there's one thing that's for sure.
Springfield is going back to the big screen.
After 20 years of speculation on whether Homer and the family would go on new adventures on the big screen, we don't have to wonder about that anymore.
We can relax and watch to find out what new adventures he's going to get into.
