“I think it’s a bigger issue thanThe Simpsons. On several levels, we’re really hoping forInside Out 2to 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 doThe Simpsonstheatrically.
“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.”
