It looks like we might finally be getting a live-action Simpsons movie, well, sort of.

The Simpsons has been one of the most iconic animated series for more than three decades now, and all this time, its fans have always wondered what the show would be like if it were a live-action series.

Now, these past few months, AI has been all the rage, so, naturally, someone just went ahead and had Midjourney V5 AI generate photo-realistic images of what all the main characters from the Simpsons would look like if they were real people, and the results are quite surprising.

Let’s take a look at 12 Simpsons characters rendered by AI in real life and fan reactions to them:

1. Ned Flanders
