The Simpsons Movie Previews

July 28th 2006 05:58
The Simpsons Movie will be released worldwide on July 27, 2007.
It will be written and produced by those currently and previously involved with the TV show. At the moment not much is know about the movie. We do know that the film is likely to have a PG-13 rating in the US and contain language that would not usually be acceptable on broadcast television.
Kelsey Grammer and Joe Mantega have confirmed that their characters Sideshow Bob and Fat Tony will make an appearance in the movie.
There will also be new characters introduced in the movie, Albert Brooks, Minnie Driver and Erin Brockovich (yes the real life one), are confirmed to have parts.

Below is the teaser trailer for the film which doesn't give much away.




Earlier this month, two clips of early, unfinished footage from the movie were shown to audiences during a Simpsons panel at Comic-Con. They are below.








Based on the above footage and what we know one theory is that in the movie Homer causes an accident at the nuclear power plant - which causes the town’s drinking water to be spoiled. Therefore, Erin Brockovich is guest starring - playing herself. After the incident, Homer gets fired from the plant, and the majority of Springfield's citizens move away.
Keep in mind this is not confirmed and that producer James. L. Brooks stated that they were going to leak fake plots, just to make it interesting.
