20.07.08 02:40
Cartoonist Matt Groening, creator of 'The Simpsons' has confirmed that he is planning a sequel to last summer's 'The Simpson's Movie'. Groening, who was speaking at the Television Critics Association press tour, said however that a second feature film could take several years to make as the show's production team are not keen on taking on the extra work load. Groening said: "It will happen at some point, but I have no idea when. The first one took us four years - mainly because we don't like to work any harder than we usually do. We'll get to it, I'm sure." Last year 'The Simpsons Movie' grossed more than $500m at the worldwide box office. [RTE/AR/FILM-TV.COM]
