In a surprising revelation, Nancy Cartwright, the iconic voice behind Bart Simpson, hinted that the long-running animated sensation The Simpsons might be gearing up for its final bow after Season 40. During her chat on the Inside of You podcast with Michael Rosenbaum, Cartwright stated unequivocally that she believes the show will reach its 40th season before calling it quits. Although Fox renewed The Simpsons for seasons up to 40 last year, the upcoming premiere of its 38th season in September suggests the series may be nearing its end. Cartwright, however, expressed her willingness to continue voicing Bart as long as the show's cast and crew remain alive and the series continues to receive renewals. With The Simpsons Movie 2 slated for a July 23, 2027 release and IGN's list of the show's top 36 episodes still captivating fans, the future of Springfield may be shrouded in mystery, but one thing is certain – Bart's spikey-haired antics will continue to delight us until at least 2028!
