When plans for a second SpongeBob Squarepants movie were announced last May, at the time no information was given about who would be creating the film, or even if TV series creator Stephen Hillenburg would be involved. Now we've learned that Hillenburg will indeed be involved with the second movie in an executive producer capacity.
Moving up to the job of director is Paul Tibbitt, a writer for the Nickelodeon TV series. The sequel's script is being written by Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger (who penned the screenplay for Kung Fu Panda 2.)

Viacom President and CEO Philippe Dauman revealed that Paramount Pictures is making a second SpongeBob Squarepants animated movie. "We will be releasing a SpongeBob movie at the end of 2014, which will serve to start off or be one of our films that starts off our new animation effort," Dauman told investors.
Since Paramount and 'toon producer DreamWorks Animation announced plans to formally separate, the question has been up in the air as to what Paramount would do to plug its animation hole. A second SpongeBob Squarepants film would serve to be a partial solution to that problem.
The first SpongeBob film was released in 2004. It grossed $85 million dollars domestic.
