'The Simpsons Movie' sequel coming to theaters in summer 2027
"The Simpsons" are going for "d'oh"-ble duty on the big screen.
It was announced on Monday that 20th Century Studios will bring a new film based on the animated family to movie theaters in 2027.
"Woohoo! The Simpsons are coming to theaters with an all-new movie on July 23, 2027!" the Instagram post's caption reads.
The announcement graphic on the post features a yellow hand reaching for a pink-frosted doughnut. Rainbow sprinkles in the shape of the number two appear all over the pastry.
"Homer's coming back for seconds," the graphic reads.
The family will be returning to movie theaters after a 20-year hiatus. However, its plot is being kept under wraps for now.
"The Simpsons Movie" was released in July 2007 and was a smash hit, earning $536 million at the global box office. Its plot found the town of Springfield being contained under a glass dome after Homer polluted the town's water supply.
David Silverman directed the film.
The sequel takes over the release date Disney previously kept for an untitled Marvel film.
Matt Groening created "The Simpsons," which premiered on Fox in December 1989.
The 37th season of the show premiered on Sept. 28. Its voice cast includes Dan Castellaneta as Homer Simpson, Julie Kavner as Marge, Nancy Cartwright as Bart and Yeardley Smith as Lisa.
Disney is the parent company of 20th Century Studios and ABC News.
