Mark Hamill next to SpongeBob from The Search for SquarePants (2025) with Screen Rant's Comic-Con template
Summary The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants is the next movie in the SpongeBob SquarePants franchise, with Mark Hamill's casting in the project building off of an almost two-decade-old cameo role. The fourth SpongeBob SquarePants movie was first announced in 2022, yet Screen Rant has learned much about the upcoming movie during San Diego Comic-Con 2024. The film will feature the many returning voice actors that fans of SpongeBob will be familiar with, only with some new additions.
Mark Hamill's Role In 2025's SpongeBob SquarePants Movie Pays Off His Time Voicing The Moth Hamill's Role Is A Step-Up Regarding SpongeBob Villains At SDCC 2024, Screen Rant learned that Mark Hamill will be voicing the Flying Dutchman in the 2025 SpongeBob movie. Previously, the Flying Dutchman was voiced by Brian Doyle-Murray.
In 2007, Hamill voiced The Moth for the first time. The Moth has since become a recurring character and is one of the arch-nemeses of Mermaid Man. In portraying the Flying Dutchman, Hamill is taking the step up from being a minor antagonist in the world of Bikini Bottom to the primary villain of a theatrical movie, 18 years after portraying a SpongeBob villain for the first time.
Similarly, the Flying Dutchman will appear in a movie rather than being confined to a TV show like The Moth. This will, again, allow Hamill to depict a greater range of voice work as there will be more of a cinematic script and feel to the film. Similarly, Hamill's previous villainous voice roles, like the Joker and Fire Lord Ozai, have been particularly menacing.
