The last several weeks have been filled with peculiar (and sometimes terrifying) imagery promoting the upcoming return of Spongebob Squarepants to theaters nationwide. We’ve known for months the film would feature the beloved cartoon characters interacting with the world beyond the ocean floor, but it wasn’t until this morning that audiences got their first real look at what 2015 has in store.
The Captain people originally believed to be hosting the Spongebob Squarepants show is actually a far more evil character than the public has ever known, at least it seems that way in the first trailer for The Spongebob Squarepants Movie: Sponge Of Out Water. Antonio Banderas steps into the role this time around, and in the opening moments of the latest preview audiences see the Captain crafting a plan to destroy Bikini Bottom in search of a mysterious page that has gone missing from an even more mysterious book. The underwater city is destroyed not long after, and shortly following a few jokes about chaos, Spongebob sets out to find the missing page. In order to do this, however, he has to leave the ocean floor and journey into the world you and I inhabit everyday. You can view the trailer below:
This is not the movie I was expecting, but I will admit that the clip above made me chuckle more than a few times. I loved the first film, and I am hopeful this one is equally silly in all the right ways. What do you think? Comment below and let us know your thoughts.
The Spongebob Squarepants Movie: Sponge Of Out Water hits theaters in early 2015.
