‘The Simpsons’ showrunner provides update on potential second movie
The Simpsons co-showrunner Al Jean has provided an update on a potential follow-up to The Simpsons Movie.Speaking to Yahoo Movies, the writer, animator and producer said that he was keen to work on another feature-length film, but that he doesn’t see it happening any time soon.“I’d love to work on another Simpsons movie, and we’ve talked about it,” he said, before questioning if a potential sequel would receive a theatrical release or go straight to streaming.“I don’t know exactly what the animation feature world is at the moment,” he continued. “I know there are some movies that have done well, but is it streaming, is it theatrical?“So I think that’s actually a question we would have to wrestle with before we even started working on a script.Last year, Jean revealed that plans for a sequel movie were shelved due the COVID-19 pandemic.“We were really talking about it a lot before the pandemic.
