The original The Simpsons Movie<\/em><\/strong> was a labor of love. From early on in the series, the producers were eager to adapt the animated show for the big screen \u2013 creator Matt Groening had hoped it would \u201cincrease the show\u2019s scale\u201d \u2013 but initial attempts failed. There were plans to adapt early episodes like Kamp Krusty<\/em> and <\/a>A Fish Called Selma\u00a0<\/em>into feature-length films, but the team ran into difficulties expanding the stories to an appropriate size. For a time, there were even plans to create a live-action film based around Phil Hartman\u2019s character, Troy McClure<\/a>; unfortunately, these plans had to be canceled following Hartman\u2019s death in 1998.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, after continued effort, the team finally began production on the film in 2006. The work wasn\u2019t easy: the chosen script went under over 100 revisions, with many of the cast and writing staff having to work on the show and the movie at the same time, leading to numerous late nights and early mornings. However, their resolve paid off, as 2007\u2019s The Simpsons Movie<\/em> broke box-office records and earned rave reviews from critics.<\/p>\n

Of course, with this level of success, audiences began to look into the future, eager for a The Simpsons Movie 2<\/em>. Indeed, rumblings of a sequel have been in the air since 2014. Around then, Fox reportedly approached producer James L. Brooks, asking him to begin production on a follow-up feature \u2013 Brooks stated that he had turned them down due to having \u201cother stuff\u201d the team wanted to explore. From then on, though, the pressure only grew until 2017, when director David Silverman confirmed a sequel was in development.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

However, since that revelation, it has been a tumultuous time for Simpsons<\/em> team. Between 2019\u2019s Fox-Disney merger<\/a> and 2020\u2019s Covid pandemic, the last few years haven\u2019t been smooth sailing, with many predicting that these disruptions will have moved the sequel a few years down the line. Nevertheless, with Groening restating he had \u201cno doubts\u201d that Disney would want a sequel \u201cvery soon,\u201d it has become a pertinent time to ask, how long until The Simpsons Movie 2<\/em>?<\/p>\n

Reportedly, the original film\u2019s final script took three years to write, beginning conception in 2003 and stemming from an idea from Groening himself. Assuming a similar timeline from the announcement of the sequel, the film will finish being written in 2021, begin production in 2022 with a possible release late in 2023, although it is of course not that simple.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

For one thing, there are reasons to believe that plans for a follow-up have been in-the-works far before then. For example, in 2014, the Season 26 episode, “The Man Who Came to be Dinner,” was postponed for a year as the producers were considering adapting it into a full-blown sequel. This plan was eventually dropped, as Brooks was worried that the high-concept nature of the episode (the Simpson family being abducted by aliens) would mean the film couldn\u2019t be \u201ccanonical\u201d with the series. Either way, this admission by the producer reveals that story elements for a sequel film were being developed as early as 2014, perhaps indicating the wait won\u2019t be as long the second time around.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, though, many of the core team who worked on that first film may not be heavily involved with the sequel. Groening, for example, has stepped back from The Simpsons,<\/em> focusing instead on new ventures like his Netflix series Disenchantment<\/em><\/a>, and director David Silverman is reportedly working on a new 2021 film, the upcoming Extinct<\/em>. This conflicting scheduling of key talent, paired with how the development of the first film was apparently so stressful and unpleasant that the team are reticent to repeat the process, might indicate that The Simpsons Movie 2<\/em> may have a more relaxed and incremental production.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Moreover, the situation is complicated further with the consideration of Disney+ and the current woeful state of the box-office. When Disney launched their flagship streaming service, a key draw for many consumers was the availability of The Simpsons<\/em><\/a> on the platform\u00a0 (in fact, all but one episode is currently available<\/a>). Equally, with box-office earnings reaching an all-time low due to the debilitating effect of the coronavirus, it\u2019s likely that Disney would want to release a sequel through its streaming service, similarly to Pixar\u2019s Soul <\/em>on Christmas Day<\/a>, rather than risk poor results in cinemas. With the studio desperately competing with Warner Bros., who are releasing their entire 2021 slate of blockbuster films onto HBOMax<\/a>, perhaps Disney will seek to further boost Disney+ through solely releasing The Simpsons Movie 2<\/em> on that platform.<\/p>\n

Above all else, the release date of the sequel to The Simpsons Movie<\/em> is currently shrouded in mystery. Although conservative estimates can be made (namely for 2023 release), given the ongoing global pandemic, the increasingly heated streaming wars, the reticent pace of the Simpsons<\/em> team, and the general dearth of information revealed, it\u2019s difficult to accurately guess when The Simpsons Movie 2<\/em> will be released.<\/p>\n
