“Homer’s coming back for seconds,” Disney and 20th Century Studios announced in September 2025, confirming a new Simpsons movie. The untitled project will be released two years from now, and fans of the long-running animated sitcom can’t wait to watch Homer’s next chaotic adventure on the big screen.

The upcoming film will be released 20 years after 2007’s The Simpsons Movie hit theaters. The original movie follows the consequences of Homer’s actions when he pollutes Springfield’s water supply, leading to the town’s encasement in a large dome by the Environmental Protection Agency. It earned more than $500 million at the global box office.

Hollywood Life has rounded up all the details we know so far about the upcoming Simpsons movie below.
