The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run

The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run is an upcoming American 3D live-action animated comedy film based on the animated television series SpongeBob SquarePants. Directed by former series writer Tim Hill, who wrote the screenplay with Michael Kvamme, Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger, this is the first SpongeBob SquarePants movie to be fully animated in stylized CG instead of the regular traditional 2D animation. The regular voice cast of the series are expected to reprise their respective roles from the series and the previous films, The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie (2004) and The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water (2015).

The film will be produced by Paramount Animation, Nickelodeon Movies, and United Plankton Pictures with animation provided by Mikros Image and will be released on May 22, 2020 by Paramount Pictures in RealD 3D.
