Some pretty interesting casting choices!
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Simpsons, as directed by Wes Anderson, is both star-studded and a little weird in new A.I. images. Given the legendary status of The Simpsons in pop culture, the possibility of a live-action take on the iconic animated series tends to spark interest. Casting decisions for Homer Simpson, as an example, have ranged over the years from Bruce Willis to John C. Reilly.
A post shared by Quills86 on the Midjourney Subreddit imagines what it might look like if Wes Anderson were to direct a live-action adaptation of The Simpsons. Some of the characters, like Bart and Lisa, look fairly anonymous. But others, such as frequent Anderson collaborator Tilda Swinton as Edna Krabappel and Tom Hanks as Principal Skinner, are pretty cool. The same is true for Ian McKellen as Mr. Burns. Not all of the actors have worked with Anderson, and Hanks only recently joined for this year's Aestroid City, but it's hard to disagree with some of the choices. Paul Rudd as Ned Flanders stands out as another interesting choice.
A Live-Action Simpsons Might Work A live-action version of The Simpsons had actually been proposed at one point, albeit not focused on any of the main or major supporting characters. Recurring guest Phil Hartman wanted to make a live-action film based on his Troy McClure character. This gained the support of several Simpsons staff members, who wanted to help bring the project to life.
Rather than focusing on casting the main characters, a live-action Simpsons might do better if it used the animated show as general inspiration and a marketing hook but focused on a more minor character. Stranger Things star Finn Wolfhard is imagined as Bart's blue-haired friend Milhouse, for instance. That could make for a good comedic movie, in theory, and allow a little more space for originality.
