One of Nickelodeon's most iconic animated characters returns to the big-screen in 2015.
Paramount Pictures have today released the first promotional poster for their upcoming animated comedy blockbuster The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water. Set to launch in cinemas in the early months of next year, the spiritual successor to 2004's The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie will see its titular protagonist leave the safety of his home in Bikini Bottom in a quest which will take him into our world.

Unless Nickelodeon are pulling our legs here, the poster (left) indicates that SpongeBob's arrival above water will prompt a shift from 2D to 3D animation. Of course, Sponge Out of Water could alternatively comprise wholly of three-dimensional animation - it's difficult to be certain either way at this point, since no preview trailers have been released as of yet. What you can be absolutely certain of, however, is that the film itself is sure to be a great laugh, and as soon as we know more, you'll find all of the relevant news updates right here at On-Screen.

The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water will swim into cinemas worldwide on February 6th, 2015.
