There has been some serious talk about it and there's been some serious progress, I would say, in terms of getting a writing staff together, and going ahead with it. But nothing has been, shall we say, green lit, or we haven't said, "Yes, we're starting to write this film" yet. It will happen eventually.

Would you have it while the Simpsons was running, or wait for the show to end?

Well, my feeling is that The Simpsons will never run out, so I don't think we can wait that long.

If The Simpsons went live action for a film, who would you cast?

I can't conceive The Simpsons as a live action film because to me the thing that makes it work ultimately is that they are animated. So I think that's one of the great things about it. Everything about it is brilliant, the writing is brilliant, the voice actors are brilliant, and I think the animation is brilliant. I think you need all three components.
