The new spin off movie Plankton: The Movie will land on the streaming platform from March 7th.
In the film, Sheldon J. Plankton is finally getting his close up.
The synopsis for the new spin off states: “Plankton’s latest evil scheme is thwarted, and Bikini Bottom and the surface world become threatened by an unexpected danger when his iconic cartoon robot Karen goes rogue.
“Before Plankton is able to take over the world, he’s going to have to save it first.“
The film will see Jill Talley (Karen), Tom Kenny (SpongeBob), Bill Fagerbakke (Patrick Star), Carolyn Lawrence (Sandy Cheeks), Clancy Brown (Mr. Krabs) and Rodger Bumpass (Squidward) all return for the latest cartoon instalment.
The film will also feature original songs from Bret McKenzie, Linda Perry, Mark Mothersbaugh and Bob Mothersbaugh, and music composed by Mahuia Bridgman-Cooper.
The 1hr27 minute film is the latest movie from the Spongebob franchise, which started 25 years ago.
This marks Netflix’s second “SpongeBob” feature following “Saving Bikini Bottom: The Sandy Cheeks Movie” last year.
Last year the lovable yellow character celebrated its 25th anniversary, with Nickelodeon showing a half-hour 25th anniversary special, SpongeBob SquarePants, Snow Yellow, at New York Comic Con 2024 for fans.
The Spongebob empire regularly sees new episodes released for fans, as well as spin off series including The Patrick Star Show.
Last year Nickelodeon confirmed they were renewing the Patrick focused show for a fourth and fifth season.
Later this year another film is in the works to be released, with The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie: Search for SquarePants set to air in December.
Whilst little has been revealed about this film so far, it has teased that it will have a large focus on the Flying Dutchman’s Ghost.
Star Wars icon Mark Hammill has been confirmed to be the voice of the Flying Dutchman in the upcoming film.
