"The Simpsons" hitch ride to Universal parks
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - "The Simpsons" are coming to Universal Studios' theme parks in Hollywood and Orlando next spring.
The long-running series, which hits the big screen on July 27, is morphing into a ride that will incorporate Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie Simpson along with other characters.
"The ride is designed to duplicate the 'Simpsons' home-viewing experience, only at high speed and with lots of screaming," creator Matt Groening said in a statement.
The series, in its 18th season, will air its 400th episode on May 20.
