The Simpsons has given a first look into its upcoming crossover event for Disney Plus Day.
The short film will see iconic characters from the animated sitcom meet with classic Disney characters on screen for the first time.
Titled The Simpsons in Plusaversary, the movie will be released on November 12 on the streamer to celebrate Disney+ Day.
‘The Simpsons host a Disney+ Day party and everyone is on the list… except Homer,’ read the official description.
‘With friends from across the service and music fit for a Disney princess, Plusaversary is Springfield’s event of the year.’
In the teaser poster for the short, Homer can be seen sitting at his typical bar table, though opposite him is not his buddy Barney Gumble but Goofy instead.
