Get ready for a holiday treat that's sure to bring the laughs and nostalgia! Disney+ is gearing up to release a brand-new Simpsons short film featuring a plethora of beloved Disney characters spanning the studio's extensive history. From classic animated icons to modern CGI heroes, this special is set to be a joyous romp through the Disney universe, Simpson-style.
In a clever nod to Mother's Day, the short titled "May the 12th Be With You" will follow Marge Simpson as she embarks on a special outing with a host of Disney moms, only to find herself thrust into an epic galactic adventure. And yes, you heard it right—Chewbacca himself makes an appearance, giving Marge a hair-raising moment as he lets out a mighty roar!
Simpsons producer Al Jean teased fans with insights into the short, including its direction by the talented David Silverman. A sneak peek poster reveals Marge Simpson caught in the midst of Chewbacca's roar, with Disney's witty caption "Wookie what we have here" adding an extra layer of fun.
But the excitement doesn't stop there. The short promises to be a visual delight, blending the distinct art style of The Simpsons with the timeless charm of Disney's characters. From the sleek CGI of Pixar to the classic 2D animation, this crossover promises to showcase Disney icons like never before.
This isn't the first time The Simpsons has dabbled in homage and parody, with annual "Treehouse of Horror" episodes delighting fans with clever riffs on classic tales. Now, with Disney in the mix, the possibilities are endless. Prepare for a whimsical journey filled with heroes, villains, and maybe even a surprise visit from an "old friend."
So mark your calendars for May 10th, gather the family, and get ready to laugh, because this Disney-infused Simpsons special is one holiday treat you won't want to miss!
And remember, you can catch The Simpsons streaming on Disney+ or tune in Sundays at 8PM on Fox. It's a cartoon classic that never fails to entertain with its hilarious take on family life in the quirky town of Springfield.
