The Simpsons is currently in the works on coming back for Season 36 later this Fall, and the premiere episode of the new season is teasing John Cena and more as big guest stars. The Simpsons Season 36 is currently slated to air on Fox later this Fall, and is showing no signs of slowing down for the animated series any time soon. With the new season on the way, The Simpsons took the stage during the San Diego Comic-Con 2024 weekend to share some new information about what to expect from the coming season and that includes a big premiere. 

The Simpsons creator Matt Groening and showrunner Matt Selman teased a bit of what's coming in the new season this Fall during San Diego Comic-Con 2024. This not only included a first look at the Treehouse of Horror XXXV special (which features a Venom parody where Homer bonds with a pair of sentient jeans titled "Denim"), but also a tease of the first episode of Season 36, "Bart's Birthday" which features a strong list of guest stars that Selman teased as "a pretty bold, big idea."

The long running animated series is teased as such, "This beloved animated comedy tells the story of the Simpson family and the residents of the typical American town of Springfield. Homer Simpson works at the local nuclear plant, and does his best to lead his family, but often finds that they are leading him. Living with Homer at 742 Evergreen Terrace is loving, blue-haired matriarch Marge, troublemaking son Bart, overachieving daughter Lisa and pacifier-sucking baby Maggie."
