Celebrity Voices Expected on The Simpsons Movie
February 3, 2007

Just as The Simpson's television show featured celebrities from film, television, music and more, The Simpsons Movie celebrity stints shouldn't disappoint.

Matt Groening's popular television series, The Simpsons, is being made into a major motion picture to be released this July. While the crew of the highly anticipated film, The Simpsons Movie, is keeping quiet about a lot of the movie details, the television series itself can lend some insight into at least part of what the movie will bring to audiences. The movie will feature the original voice cast, some of the original writers, the same familiar theme song by Danny Elfman and, just as the television show, celebrity cameos.

The Simpsons television series featured dozens of celebrity voices over its 19 year run (and still going!). In addition to the numerous cameos in which celebrities voice their own likenesses, many television, music, and film personalities have leant their vocal talents to help create members of the Simpsons family, friends, and colleagues. Here is a short list of just a few of the many famous voices heard on past Simpsons television show episodes:

Glenn Close - Homer's Mother, Mona J. Simpson
Danny Devito - Homer's Half-Brother, Herb Powell
Meryl Streep - Bart's Girlfriend, Jessica Lovejoy
Rodney Dangerfield - Burns' illegitimate son, Larry Burns
Michelle Pfeiffer - seductive power plant employee, Mindy Simmons
Dustin Hoffman - Lisa's substitute teacher, Mr. Bergstrom
Winona Ryder - Lisa's school rival, Allison Taylor
Lisa Kudrow - Lisa's cool classmate, Alex Whitney
Steve Martin - Springfields sanitation commissioner

With so many top Hollywood personalities contributing to the TV show, it is expected that several familiar voices will pop up throughout the film. There are already a few famous names listed on the roster for The Simpsons Movie, including: Minnie Driver (from The Phantom of the Opera, Good Will Hunting); Albert Brooks (from Mother, Finding Nemo - he has made several guest appearances on the TV show), Joe Mantengna (from The Godfather III, Bugsy - the voice of Fat Tony on the TV show), Kelsey Grammer (famous for his role on Frasier, plays Sideshow Bob on the TV show), and Erin Brockovich.

As of this article The Simpsons Movie is still in post-production and information is subject to change. The Simpsons Movie is expected to hit theaters July 27, 2007.
