In 2015, TheSponge231 along with Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies announced a movie based on TheSponge231's series SpongeBob in Minecraft. The movie will be directed by Derek Drymon and storyboarded by Sherm Cohen. Markus "Notch" Persson, the creator of Minecraft, will also work on the film as the film's animator.

Plot
The plot is not known yet, but TheSponge231 states that "the plot would have something to do with Plankton taking over the Minecraft universe"

Development
When SpongeBob in Minecraft first aired, TheSponge231 was getting a lot of requests from fans to do a film based on the series. He found the requests quite odd because the show just aired and already he was getting requests to do a movie. When Season 2 began, he contacted Nickelodeon Movies and asked if they could help produce a SpongeBob in Minecraft movie. They said yes and work on the movie began.

Scripting began on December 18, 2015.

The series was put on hiatus and they worked on the movie for a bit.

In January 2016, TheSponge231 announced an official release date. It was July 20, 2017.

On Janurary 23, 2016, TheSponge231 announced two things about the movie - Alex was to be in the movie, and the music would be done by C418.

On January 27, 2016, TheSponge231 stated that "the plot would have something to do with Plankton taking over the Minecraft universe"

He also stated David Bowie's song "Heroes" will be featured in the movie's credits as it fits the plot of the movie.
