“If nautical nonsense be something you wish, then join AFI for the World Premiere of The Spongebob Movie: Search for Squarepants,” said Bob Gazzale, AFI President and CEO. “Spongebob is an American icon – absorbent and yellow and porous is he — and AFI is honored to host this celebration under the sea.”
Making its Los Angeles debut with the feature is the new short film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Chrome Alone 2: Lost in New Jersey. From producers Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, James Weaver, Jeff Rowe, and Ramsay McBean and directed by Kent Seki, the film reunites audiences with the Turtle brothers from the 2023 feature Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. When a mysterious toy company seeks to profit off the turtles’ new hero status, the brothers follow the clues to New Jersey and make a shocking discovery in this all new original short.
