Simpsons to kill of a main character! - cucubelu - Oct 02 2013 Will Bart die? The Simpsons to kill off one of their main characters this season, reveals show producer By Daily Mail Reporter PUBLISHED: 12:44 EST, 1 October 2013 | UPDATED: 14:49 EST, 1 October 2013 3,534 shares 427 View comments This could be the end for Bart. Or Homer. Or Marge. Or any one of the dozens of the characters on the long-running hit Fox show The Simpsons. On Friday the show's producer Al Jean revealed during a conference to promote the 25th season of the cartoon that it will be the end for a regular character. But he wouldn't say who. Doh! Will a member of America's best drawn families die? Simpsons producer Al Jean said on Friday that a regular character will perish on the 25th season of the hit show 'I'll give you a clue that the actor playing the character won an Emmy for playing that character, but I won't say who it is,' Jean said. That is not much of a clue considering that almost all of the actors who supplied voices for the main Simpsons characters have taken home Emmys. The main players are Dan Castellaneta, who voices Homer, Julie Kavner, who does Marge, Nancy Cartwright, the voice of Bart, and Yeardley Smith, who's Lisa. The lineup: (from left) Bart, Marge (holding Maggie) or Homer could be food for worms soon Hank Azaria and Harry Shearer also do several voices. Tress MacNeille, Pamela Hayden, Maggie Roswell, Russi Taylor, Marcia Wallace, Marcia Mitzman Gaven and Karl Wiedergott are regular supporting cast members. The actors aren't worried if a character keels over because each performer voices several personalities on the show. So no one is in jeopardy of losing his or her job. A character on the show hasn't since Maud Flanders was killed 14 years ago. The producer, in a chat to promote the new season of the show, doled out some more shockers. New guest voices will include Kristen Wiig, who appears in the opener, Zach Galifianakis and Elisabeth Moss. 'In [Elisabeth's] episode, Homer is stuck on an elevator with a pregnant woman and delivers her baby,' says Jean. They're not worried: The cast of The Simpsons, seen here in 2007 with crew members, won't mind if one of their characters dies off because they have others they work on their list,' said the producer. 'She's grateful and she doesn't have a husband, so she names the baby Homer Jr. And Homer actually bonds with the baby better than his own [children].' Other notable celebrity voices over the years have included Drew Barrymore as Sophie, daughter of Krusty the Clown, Kelsey Grammer who has done Sideshow Bob, and Michelle Pfeiffer who purred as Mindy Simmons. Simpsons producers still have not been able to nab a real US President to come onto the show, which Jean said on Friday irks him. 'We approached Nixon - no. This was back at the beginning of the show,' he confesses.
