The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water is a 2015 American animated/live action comedy film based on the Nickelodeontelevision series SpongeBob SquarePants. A stand-alone sequel to The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie (2004), it was directed byPaul Tibbitt, and stars the regular television cast (Tom KennyClancy BrownRodger BumpassBill FagerbakkeCarolyn Lawrence, and Mr. Lawrence), who returned to reprise their respective roles from the series and the previous film and Antonio Banderas.[4]Matt Berry co-stars as Bubbles.

The film was written by Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger from a story conceived by Tibbitt and SpongeBob SquarePants creatorStephen Hillenburg. Like the first film, the final act (which was directed by Mike Mitchell) mixes the animated characters in a live action world. However, in this film, the characters are animated and rendered in computer animation. The live action scenes were shot in various locations throughout Savannah, Georgia and Tybee Island; filming began on October 9, 2013, in the downtown area, where various establishments were changed to resemble a beach community. Filming completed in November 2013. During production (in 2012), actor Ernest Borgnine, the original voice of Mermaid Man, died; the film was dedicated to his memory.
The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water was released in the United States on February 6, 2015 to positive reviews and was a box office success, grossing over $311 million worldwide against a $74 million budget.
