It’s been twelve years since the first The Simpsons movie was released and it looks like the sequel could be arriving pretty soon.
The show’s creator, Matt Groening, confirmed a second film for The Simpsons during his appearance at the recent Comic Con event.
Speaking on the sequel – and of Disney’s recent acquisition of 20th Century Fox – Groening said: “No doubt there will be another Simpsons movie one of these days. I think Disney wants something for its money.”
The first The Simpsons movie was released in 2007 and was met with much success as it became the eighth highest-grossing film of that year, as well as becoming the highest-grossing film based on an animated television series.
Judging by the success of the original film, and the success of The Simpsons as a series, it’s only right that we’re treated to a sequel.
