The film was directed by David Silverman, and stars the regular television cast of Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright, Yeardley Smith, Seth MacFarlane, Patrick Warburton, Hank Azaria, Harry Shearer, Jennifer Tilly, Adam West, Mike Henry, David Hermann, Tress MacNeille, and Pamela Hayden. It features James Wood as Terrence Dickson, the evil head of the Environmental Protection Agency (who kidnap the mysterious boy known as The Rebel's younger twin sister) to destroy Springfield after Homer pollutes the lake and Thomas Sangster as Colin, an boy who has the same characteristics of Lisa. As the townspeople exile Colin and eventually his family abandons him, Homer works to redeem his folly by stopping Dickson's scheme, teaming up with The Rebel who's on a mission to rescue his younger twin sister. Previous attempts to create a film version of The Simpsons Guy failed due to the lack of a script of appropriate length and production crew members. Eventually, producers James L. Brooks, Matt Groening, Seth Macfarlane, Al Jean, David Zuckerman, Mike Scully, Walter Murphy and Richard Sakai began development of the film in 2001. A writing team consisting of Scully, Jean, Brooks, Groening, George Meyer, David Mirkin, Mike Reiss, John Swartzwelder, Jon Vitti, Ian Maxtone-Graham, and Matt Selman was assembled. They conceived numerous plot ideas, with Groening's being the one developed into a film. The script was re-written over a hundred times, and this creativity continued after animation had begun in 2006. This includes amny cameo roles from Erin Brockovich, Steve Downes, Minnie Driver, Isla Fisher, Kelsey Grammer, and Edward Norton. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Hanks and Green Day appeared as themselves.
