Now, before anyone gets instantly offended by the title, I do not want a live action Simpsons movie to happen. The Simpsons are all about the characters, voices and yellowness. This is just for fun. I recently stumbled upon the live action Simpsons opening from a few years ago. I had seen it a few times before, but this viewing got me thinking. Who would I cast in a live action Simpsons movie?

Here is my list:

Paul Giamatti as Homer Simpson

Lorraine Bracco as Marge Simpson

Jacob Kogan as Bart Simpson

AnnaSophia Robb as Lisa Simpson

Jeff Goldblum as Moe

William H. Macy as Ned Flanders

Ian McDiarmid as Mr. Burns

Allison Janney as Edna Krabappel

David Schwimmer as Rev. Lovejoy

Steve Buscemi as Dr. Nick

I could totally see William H. Macy as Flanders! He'd make a perfect Flanders.

Look you guys, I don't know what you're trying to say, but NOBODY is beating my cast!

I've seen videos and pictures of the actors I chose and more than a dozen of them have the right looks and sort of voice for the characters.

George Clooney as Homer

Catherine O’Hara as Marge

Jimmy Bennett as Bart

Elle Fanning as Lisa

Edward Asner as Grandpa

William H. Macy as Ned Flanders

Christopher Lloyd as Mr. Burns

Wallace Shawn as Smithers

Jon Lovitz as Krusty the Clown

John Goodman as Chief Wiggum

Steve Buscemi as Moe

John Ratzenberger as Mayor Quimby

Paul Giamatti as Barney

Tony Shalhoub as Apu

Tim Allen as Principal Skinner

Allison Janney as Mrs. Krabappel

Cathy Moriarty as Patty

Drew Barrymore as Selma

Hank Azaria as Cletus

Alec Baldwin as Kent Brockman

Bill Cosby as Dr. Hibbert

Billy Connolly as Groundskeeper Willie

Randy Quaid as Superintendent Chalmers

Bonnie Hunt as Ms. Hoover

David Schwimmer as Dr. Nick

Arnold Schwarzenegger as Rainier Wolfcastle

Danny DeVito as Mr. Largo

Matthew Lillard as Otto

Joe Mantegna as Fat Tony

Btw, if any of you think Kelsey Grammer can’t bear the amount of hair Sideshow Bob has, he can it he wears a big brown wig.
