SpongeBob SquarePants is an American animated/live-actioncomedy film series based on the Nickelodeontelevision program of the same name, created by Stephen Hillenburg. It began in 2004 with the release of The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. The series is distributed and owned by Paramount Pictures, a subsidiary of Nickelodeon's parent companyViacom. All films feature the regular television voice cast: Tom Kenny, Bill Fagerbakke, Rodger Bumpass, Clancy Brown, Mr. Lawrence, Jill Talley, Carolyn Lawrence, Mary Jo Catlett and Lori Alan. The first installment is directed by Hillenburg, the second is directed by former showrunnerPaul Tibbitt, and the third is directed by former writer Tim Hill.
Plans for a film based on the series began in 2001, when Nickelodeon and Paramount Pictures began approaching Hillenburg for a theatrical feature. He initially refused their offers, but began developing it in 2002 upon completion of the show's third season. The first movie was theatrically released in the United States on November 19, 2004 to critical and commercial success. It was originally planned to act as the series finale, but the franchise's success led to the production of more episodes. A stand-alone sequel, The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water, followed in 2015. A third film, The SpongeBob Movie: It's a Wonderful Sponge, is scheduled for release on May 22, 2020.

Production[edit]
The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie[edit]
Nickelodeon and Paramount Pictures had approached SpongeBob SquarePants creator Stephen Hillenburg for a film based on the show as early as 2001, but he refused for more than a year.[9] He was concerned, after watching The Iron Giant and Toy Story with his son, about the challenge of SpongeBob and Patrick doing something more cinematically consequential and inspiring without losing what he called the SpongeBob 'cadence.'[9] He said, on a break from season four post-production, 'To do a 75-minute movie about SpongeBob wanting to make some jellyfish jelly would be a mistake, I think [...] This had to be SpongeBob in a great adventure. That's where the comedy's coming from, having these two naïve characters, SpongeBob and Patrick, a doofus and an idiot, on this incredibly dangerous heroic odyssey with all the odds against them.'[9] The writers decided to write a mythical hero's quest for the 2004 film: the search for a stolen crown, which brings SpongeBob and Patrick to the surface.[10] Of the plot, Bill Fagerbakke (the voice of Patrick) said, 'It's just nuts. I'm continually dazzled and delighted with what these guys came up with.'[11]
Production on the first film began in 2002 after Hillenburg and the show's staff completed the third season.[12] A tongue-in-cheek announcement of the film's plot from early on stated that it would feature SpongeBob rescuing Patrick from a fisherman in Florida.[12] This was intended as a humorous reference to Finding Nemo and was later confirmed by Tom Kenny (the voice of SpongeBob) to be a 'joke' plot to keep fans busy.[12] Hillenburg wrote the film with five other writer-animators from the show (Paul Tibbitt, Derek Drymon, Aaron Springer, Kent Osborne and Tim Hill) over a three-month period in a room of a former Glendale, California bank.[9] Osborne said, 'It was hugely fun [...] although it did get kind of gamy in there.'[9]
The first film was intended to be the series finale; Hillenburg wanted to end the franchise after the movie was completed so it 'wouldn't jump the shark'. However, Nickelodeon desired more episodes due to the franchise's growing popularity.[13] Hillenburg stated: 'Well, there was concern when we did the movie [in 2004] that the show had peaked. There were concerns among executives at Nickelodeon.'[14][15] As a result, Hillenburg resigned as the series' showrunner,[16] appointing writer, director, and storyboard artistPaul Tibbitt to succeed him.[17] Hillenburg still remained involved with the series, reviewing each episode and submitting suggestions.[16][18]

The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water[edit]
In 2010, The New York Times reported that Nickelodeon had approached the show's crew to make a second film.[19] The network hoped to give itself and the global franchise 'a boost' by releasing another film.[20] The Los Angeles Times reported that Paramount had 'another SpongeBob picture' in development in March 2011.[21]Philippe Dauman, then president and CEO of Paramount and Viacom, announced on February 28, 2012 that a sequel film was in development and slated for a late 2014 release.[22][23][24] Dauman added that the film 'will serve to start off or be one of our films that starts off our new animation effort.'[22] Nickelodeon expected the film to do much better in foreign box office than the 2004 feature, given its increasingly global reach.[20][25] Dauman said, 'This will continue to propel SpongeBob internationally.'[20]
Production on the second movie was announced on June 10, 2014. Stephen Hillenburg returned to act as the film's executive producer,[citation needed] and contributed to the story of the film.[26]
