SpongeBob Out Of Theaters

As the coronavirus romps along, we'll see more and more movies moved to streaming platforms. Movie theaters? Not a lot of people rushing down to their local AMC, and who's going to be in the multiplex?

Paramount is taking The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run off the theatrical calendar and sending it straight into homes for an early 2021 release. We heard sources talking about this earlier today. Sponge on the Run will go on PVOD before it hits CBS All Access.

The movie was originally scheduled to play over Memorial Day weekend before COVID-19, but was rescheduled for Aug. 7.

Better pay per view than no views at all. No doubt Paramount is kicking itself that it didn't get this movie ... which has been in work for years, done way earlier ...
