SpongeBob SquarePants 2 Movie 'Sponge Out of Water': 3D Cartoon Sequel Release Date Moved to Avoid 'Fifty Shades of Grey' [Trailer]
SpongeBob, Patrick and the rest of the gang get a makeover as the all-time favorite yellow sponge is set to appear in another full-length movie with the title "The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie: Sponge out of Water," according to Yahoo! Movies.
The trailer was just been released. SpongeBob and his friends are initially shown in their regular 2D cartoon form until they are forced to go above the surface of the water and transform into 3D characters.
While they look a little different in their new form, SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy, Plankton and Mr. Krabs actually look good in 3D. Moreover, they are still voiced by the same cast in the regular series with Tom Kenny, Rodger Bumpass, Bill Fagerbakke, Clancy Brown, Mr. Lawrence and Carolyn Lawrence.
Playing the antagonistic pirate in the new movie is Antonio Banderas, who is on a quest in search for the final page that is the recipe he needs for his evil plan with the "Magic Book." The book allows its holder to write on its pages to get whatever they want.
To battle the enemy pirate, the gang gets superpowers from the same magic book. SpongeBob becomes Invincibubble, while Patrick turns into Mr. Superawsomeness, Mr. Krabs turns into Sir Pinch-a-lot, who looks similar to Iron Man and Plankton gets a Hulk-like superpower. Meanwhile, Sandy becomes a real-life squirrel, and Squidward turns into Sour Note.
"The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie: Sponge out of Water" was originally set to be released this year, but Paramount Pictures announced that the official release would be on Feb. 6, 2015, instead, The Wrap reported.
It was decided to push it to a week earlier to avoid competition with the popular and much-awaited "Fifty Shades of Grey" release by Universal Pictures. The first trailer was shown on July 21. The last SpongeBob movie was released in 2004 and enjoyed a successful performance at the box office.
