The Simpsons Movie

The Simpsons are on their way onto the big screen! The animated comedy based off the long running TV series will arrive in theatres July 27th, 2007! “The Simpsons” made its television debut in 1989 and now the screenplay for the movie is finished. Certainly the creators are saying very little about the plot and dummy scripts might be circulated to keep Internet spies off the track.

Here's what they did say:

The film probably will be rated PG-13 for language a bit coarser than you see on TV, though Groening says creators are considering using the freedom of film to "exploit all the degenerate standards of today's movie going culture."

Guest stars will include Albert Brooks, Minnie Driver and the real-life Erin Brockovich (whom Bart Simpson once called "the prostitute with the heart of gold").

Nearly all the series regulars are in the movie. "We've got a lot of time to fill," writer-producer James Brooks jokes.

Never fear, this won't be the end of the TV series, signed to air into 2009.

"We felt the time was right for a movie," Groening says. "And for Milhouse to win an Oscar."

Watch the Teaser online.
