Per the film’s official logline: “Plankton’s tangled love story with his sentient computer wife goes sideways when she takes a stand — and decides to destroy the world without him.”


The new SpongeBob SquarePants spinoff is directed by Dave Needham (The Loud House Movie) from a story by Plankton voice actor Mr. Lawrence, screenplay by Mr. Lawrence & Kaz and Mr. Lawrence & Chris Viscardi, based on the characters created by Stephen Hillenburg.

SpongeBob SquarePants voice stars reprise their iconic roles from the 25-years-running show: Mr. Lawrence as Plankton, Jill Talley as Karen, Tom Kenny as SpongeBob, Bill Fagerbakke as Patrick, Carolyn Lawrence as Sandy, Clancy Brown as Mr. Krabs and Rodger Bumpass as Squidward.

FIRST LOOK: Plankton is coming to Netflix next year in his very own standalone movie! #NextOnNetflix

Music is by Mahuia Bridgman-Cooper, with original songs by Bret McKenzie (Flight of the Conchords), Songwriters Hall of Fame inductee Linda Perry, Mark Mothersbaugh & Bob Mothersbaugh.
Executive producers on the project are SpongeBob franchise veterans Marc Ceccarelli and Vincent Waller.
