The long-awaited movie The Simpsons 2 is finally in full development and will be released on July 23, 2027.

The family's first feature film, The Simpsons Movie, hit theaters in July 2007. It was a huge commercial success, grossing $536 million worldwide on a budget of $75 million. Directed by veteran filmmaker David Silverman, the film showed Springfield enclosed under a giant glass dome after Homer accidentally polluted the town's lake. Although there have been rumors of a sequel for years, it has only now been confirmed that one is in the works.

The announcement was made with a single poster. This image has the same characteristics as the original movie poster, showing the classic pink donut with sprinkles and the slogan Homer's coming back for seconds.

As this was a surprise announcement with no prior warning, it is unknown whether the original voice actors will return to play the iconic characters Homer, Marge, Bart, and Lisa. While we wait for more information, it seems that this is an effort to attract new fans to this famous story.

The first movie

The first Simpsons movie, released in 2007, focuses on Homer Simpson, who accidentally contaminates Springfield's water supply by dumping the waste from his pig, Plopper, into the lake. As a result, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) decides to enclose the city under a large glass dome, turning the Simpsons into criminals.

As the situation becomes more critical, the Simpson family attempts to flee and travels to Alaska in search of a new beginning. However, they soon learn that EPA director Russ Cargill has plans to destroy Springfield with a bomb to cover up the disaster. Despite his selfish desires at first, Homer has a revelation and decides to return to safeguard the city and his family.

Throughout the film, Homer faces the possibility of losing his family because of his decisions. As the plot unfolds, he realizes that his family is the most important thing and that he must fight for them. This culminates in his decision to return to Springfield to help his wife Marge and his children, despite his initial desire to flee to Alaska.

The Simpsons movie mixes the classic humor of the series with moments of action and adventure, concluding with a family reunion and the restoration of Springfield after the dome's destruction.
