    Another commenter couldn’t help but point out that the ambitious casting director would make the producers go bankrupt. “This would need a budget of 325,000,000 just to pay all the actors.”

    Al Jean, the show’s co-runner, spoke withScreen Rant before the release of Inside Out 2 and said the success of the film could influence their decision to make a second animated Simpsons film.

    “I think it’s a bigger issue than The Simpsons. On several levels, we’re really hoping for Inside Out 2 to do great this summer. I want to see the animation business completely return to what it was before the pandemic. And then, I think if that was the case, it would make sense to do The Simpsons theatrically. 

    “But I understand that it’s an issue above me about, ‘Where would you release it? And how would you release it?’

    I really am all for animation being fully theatrical, so I hope that’s where it goes.”

    Watch the trailer for the live-action adaptation below:

    To say Inside Out 2 was successful would be an understatement. The film crossed the $1 billion mark in just 19 days of release, the fastest ever for an animated movie, as per theWalt Disney Company.

    The first Simpsons Movie was released in 2007. The film, which follows the protagonists as their hometown of Springfield is quarantined under a giant glass dome after Homer pollutes the local lake, became a box-office hit, grossing $536.4 million worldwide.
