Bart and Homer will confront one another in a brand-new way in December. The iconic Simpsons characters will show up on an animated NFL field as the Cincinnati Bengals face the Dallas Cowboys on December 9. It’s all part of The Simpsons Funday Football, a special Monday Night Football presentation that will display the action in animated form on Atoms Stadium in Springfield.
The Simpsons Funday Football show will stream on Disney+ and ESPN+ (as well as NFL+ on mobile) starting at 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET on December 9. For most of the NFL game, Sony’s Beyond Sports Technology will transform Bengals and Cowboys players into The Simpsons world. But, during specific plays and moments, Bart will show up on the field with the Bengals, and Homer will do the same for the Cowboys.
Marge and Lisa are set to talk with players during the game–with Bart’s sister also cheering on the Bengals–while Maggie controls the SkyCam. Krusty, Nelson, Milhouse, and Ralph will also root for the Bengals. On the other side, Carl, Barney, Lenny, and Moe will back the Cowboys with Homer.
