The Simpsons executive producer Matt Selman has teased the show's upcoming MCU crossover episode by sharing a new poster that parodies elements of Avengers: Endgame.

Selman unveiled the poster on his Twitter account, as he promoted the special episode, titled Bart the Bad Guy, which is set to air on Sunday, March 1 at 8 pm (ET) on Fox.



Bart takes the spotlight in the centre of the colourful image, where he appears alongside a Simpsonized version of big bad Thanos, who goes by the name of "Chinnos" and will be voiced by Marvel boss Kevin Feige. On the opposite side, there are two grinning movie executives, who will be voiced by Endgame directors Anthony and Joe Russo in the episode.

Meanwhile, Homer, Marge and Lisa take their rightful place on the cinema seats at the forefront of the image, surrounded by an eclectic cast of new characters, though Maggie is notably absent from the poster. Fox has since clarified in a tweet that "she's a little too young to watch superhero movies."

In the episode, Bart sees an unauthorized early preview of an unreleased sequel from an extremely popular Vindicator superhero movie franchise. After his advanced screening, he realises that he wields the power to spoil the movie for millions of people who have yet to watch it, while the studio execs desperately try to silence the Springfield youngster.

Before the release of Avengers: Endgame, the Russo Brothers encouraged moviegoers to try and see a screening on the opening weekend for a better chance of a spoiler-free experience. They even shared a letter in which they asked people not to ruin the twists and surprises in the film, as they coined the hashtag #DontSpoilTheEndgame.
