See first look at newly-renamed The Simpsons movie

A first look at the second Simpsons movie was premiered at Disney ‘s D23 Entertainment Showcase – check out footage below.

The first Simpsons film was released in 2007 and following its release, an episode in season 19 ( He Loves To Fly And He D’ohs ) opened with Bart’s usual chalkboard gag, which saw him writing over and over on the board: “I will not wait 20 years to make another movie.”

Creator Matt Groening went on to fulfil Bart’s prophecy, with the forthcoming sequel – which was announced by Disney last year –  set to hit cinemas on September 3, 2027, exactly 20 years after the first film received its world premiere in Springfield, Vermont.

Per The Wrap , the film – with a revamped title of The New Simpsons Movie – features clips of Homer and the gang at a baseball game as they chase a runaway ball. Eventually, the entire town is after it, with a mob flocking to Moe’s Tavern, where his pickled eggs are mistaken for the ball.

In mostly storyboarded clips, the chase continues through a hospital and into the Duff Brewery, where the ball winds up in a giant tank of beer, with Homer chasing it through the refinery and eventually getting blasted out of a smokestack.
