Disney just slipped this little donut-shaped secret through the galaxy with a cheeky Instagram post featuring Homer reaching for a sprinkle-speckled “2” — yep, Homer’s coming back for seconds! While the plot remains wrapped in mystery deeper than a Scorpio’s soul, the timing feels almost astrologically apt. Maybe it’s Jupiter’s expansive influence encouraging a second helping of satire and silliness, or Saturn reminding us that some classics deserve a comeback tour.

The Simpsons are getting off the couch and heading back to theaters in 2027.

Disney announced Monday that an untitled The Simpsons movie is set for theatrical release on July 23, 2027. The Simpsons Movie, a previous feature version of the long-running Matt Groening-created Fox animated series, hit theaters in 2007.

Plot details for the new film have not yet been shared. 20th Century Studios confirmed the news on Instagram with an image of Homer Simpson snagging a pink donut covered with sprinkles in the shape of the numeral “2.” The caption reads, “Homer’s coming back for seconds.”

The second Simpsons movie takes the release date that Disney had previously held for an untitled Marvel film. Warner Bros.’ animated musical feature Bad Fairies is also scheduled to hit theaters July 23, 2027.

Fox series The Simpsons premiered in December 1989 and launched its 37th season Sunday. Groening developed the program with James L. Brooks and Sam Simon after the Simpsons family appeared in shorts on The Tracey Ullman Show.

The voice cast for the titular family includes Dan Castellaneta as Homer Simpson, Julie Kavner as Marge, Nancy Cartwright as Bart and Yeardley Smith as Lisa.

Released in July 2007, The Simpsons Movie collected $536 million at the global box office. The film centered on the Environmental Protection Agency encasing the Simpsons’ hometown of Springfield in a dome after Homer taints the area’s water supply.

In his review of The Simpsons Movie for The Hollywood Reporter, critic Kirk Honeycutt wrote that the show’s team “labored long and hard to make a movie that hearkens back to the vintage years of the series.”

He continued about the film, “It’s caustic, irreverent, constantly amusing and a tiny bit rude. Not a lot, though. This isn’t the Beavis and Butt-Head or South Park movie. It’s almost — dare I say it — charming.”
