Netflix has announced a new movie called Plankton: The Movie. The synopsis of Plankton: The Movie itself will tell the story of Plankton’s attempt to rule the world.
The movie is the second spin-off of SpongeBob SquarePants after Saving Bikini Bottom: The Sandy Cheeks Movie which is set to hit Netflix in August 2024.
Over the years, several movies have been launched in the world of SpongeBob Squarepants. However, all of these movies feature stories about SpongeBob and Patrick Star’s friendship, such as in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie (2004), Sponge Out of Water (2015), and Sponge on the Run (2021).
