'The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run' is the latest feature to skip the big screen, for the small screen.

Paramount and Nickelodeon’s animated adventure will launch on premium digital rental services in early 2021 before landing exclusively on CBS All Access.

Meanwhile, all  prior seasons of SpongeBob SquarePants will also be available to stream on the network owned by ViacomCBS.

The movie had initially rescheduled its theatrical release due to COVID-19 to August 7.
