THE SIMPSONS TO RETURN TO BIG SCREEN
Posted 10:50am 07/17/08
THE SIMPSONS is heading back to the big screen - creator MATT GROENING has
confirmed a sequel to last year's (07) hit movie.
The animated comedy went feature-length for the first time, and became a box
office smash with earnings of more than $500 million worldwide.
So Groening is returning to Springfield for a follow-up - but he warns fans
they have a long wait ahead, as the first film took four years to make.
He says, "It will happen at some point, but I have no idea when. The first
one took us four years - mainly because we don't like to work any harder than
we usually do."
Last year (07) marked the 20th anniversary of the Emmy Award-winning animated
franchise. (JMA/NYDN/PAW) *WENN
