After two whole decades, Springfield’s most famous family is finally making a big-screen comeback! 20th Century Studios just announced that The Simpsons Movie 2 will hit theaters on July 23, 2027, and fans couldn’t be more excited.
The announcement dropped with a fun teaser on Instagram:
The first movie, released back in 2007, was a massive success, raking in over $500 million worldwide. Since then, fans have been desperate for a sequel, but the project hit a few bumps along the way—mainly thanks to delays from the COVID pandemic and Disney waiting to see how other animated blockbusters performed.
That wait finally paid off when Pixar’s “Inside Out 2” smashed records, pulling in a staggering $1.6 billion. That gave Disney the green light to push ahead with The Simpsons’ return to the big screen.
What about the story? That’s still under wraps—no plot details or spoilers yet. But the TV show itself is still going strong, with nearly 800 episodes and a renewal all the way through season 40. The Simpsons are proving they’re not going anywhere anytime soon.
So mark your calendars and get ready to say “D’oh!” again. Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie are back, and it’s sure to be one wild ride!
