Is that voice actor Dan Castellaneta?

...Or is it Kelsey Grammer as Sideshow Bob since there's a minifig of his character, Stinky Pete from Toy Story 2?

Technically he’s also played Beast in X-Men and there’s a Beast minifig.   
 

I do think it’ll be Sideshow Bob to go with Krusty.

Is there any chance we'll get a man purchasing fast food to disguise it as it's own cooking?

A delightfully devillish idea, but I'd guess that they'd save Skinner for a Springfield Elementary set, since he'd make a better exclusive for such a set. Hopefully the Krusty Burger will sell well, and we'll get the school as a D2C later along with Seymour and Super-Nintendo Chalmers.

I’m hoping to buy the Krusty Burger set soon after it comes out!

I don't know why but somehow I feel like this will be a once off set for the Theme, like Stranger Things, We only got The House and Kwik-E-Mart last time

Hope I'm wrong, I doubt we'll get a new Kwik-E-Mart

I'm just shocked because disney's has been making the license difficult for sure. They just cancelled my favorite simpsons game that I was playing since 2012, The Simpsons Tapped out and made me question what was Disney trying to do with the simpsons like if anything and the toy sections at retailers if filled with simpsons 3.5" figures.

Lego Simpsons was actually what got me into Tapped Out. I was waiting for the Kwik-E-Mart to be revealed and really wanted to build more simpsons, so I thought why not build the town in the game. It's kinda ironic how the game comes to an end as the next set is right around the corner. I kinda came full circle. It's sad though, I'm gonna miss that town. Kinda already do, game doesn't really feel the same now that everything became pretty much free.

I have the same feeling. Hopefully at the very least Springfield Elementary will get approved on lego ideas (if they didn't have one planned themselves). That's really the one building I want the most. Can imagine it would sell well, we haven't really gotten any real, highly detailed, regular schools.

The original heads will return 

Squeaky teen and another big character will premiere in this set! So now this actor will have 3 figures based on his characters!  (3 not 2 was the edit)

I'm hoping for Sideshow Bob, but Spider-Pig/Harry Plopper also has a decent chance.

Why do you think this? There aren't any special Simpsons things happening around now, are there? Like Lord of the Rings, this seems more like doing something that's generally popular, especially with lots of adult fans and they're really leaning into the 18+ stuff. 

That's not to say it won't be a one off, but there are several potentially popular sets they could do that would sell well.

should we be worried that there aren‘t any news for the Simpsons with all the other stuff being announced?

Íd say It is likely we will get a comic book store, if the theme comes back. there is nothing controversial about it and it would sell like crazy even to people, who are generic city buillders.

I could see them doing at least a small display piece with Bart and the blackboard, to squeeze the money out of his headmould with pretty much zero effort.

They should do an advent calendar. Youd have to do the whole family. Do homer in santa outfit and bart from the first episode. Marge do Christmas lights in hair. Not sure what to do with Maggie and lisa. Builds should include the snowman and bonestorm tile from the same episode. Maybe do a printed tile of the melted Christmas tree. And if we are going crazy Homer and Barney as Mr Plow and The Plow King. But that'd be way over the budget.

For me, that both sucks and blows. Getting a Simpsons advent calendar then not really getting anything new. The five minfigures needed for the family means that there might be one more space for a different character. If you have a Homer head, it is easy to make a Santa Homer. The rest would probably just be mini builds of a tiny pink car, maybe the house, in microscale and a few printed tiles.

Well, it is not lile it's going to happen with todays kids being not interedted in the show.^^' To be honest I am all in for one new character and a few special tiles.

Seems there is 1635 pieces for the Krusty Burger … That is very low, hope this is not the real piece-count.

The Simpsons House had about 2400, the Kwik-E-Market 2000... It could be about 1600. Imagine the Kwik-E-Market, but 3 sides with large transparent panels for the windows instead of brickbuild walls. I do not expect a car to be included.
