Voices behind SpongeBob, Patrick, Mr. Krabs, Sandy, Squidward and Plankton all play their real-life counterpart in SpongeBob’s Big Birthday Blowout live-action/animated special coming 12 July on Nickelodeon.
The special mixes live-action and animation, allowing the voice cast of Tom Kenny (SpongeBob), Bill Fagerbakke (Patrick Star), Rodger Bumpass (Squidward), Clancy Brown (Mr. Krabs), Carolyn Lawrence (Sandy Cheeks) and Mr. Lawrence (Plankton) to play live-action versions of their animated characters alongwith guest star David Hasselhoff (Baywatch).

“I experienced the world of SpongeBob first-hand when I appeared in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, which was an amazing experience,” Hasselhoff shared. “After making that cameo, kids around the world recognized me from the movie. How awesome to now come back to be part of the 20th anniversary special. I got to interact with Tom Kenny and SpongeBob. It also was a heartwarming tribute to Steve Hillenburg. Happy 20th SpongeBob. Hooray!!”
The celebration around the 20th anniversary of SpongeBob SquarePants is bittersweet for the cast and crew following creator Hillenburg’s death last year.
“Steve Hillenburg gave me the gift of a lifetime when he asked me to voice his porous alter ego, SpongeBob SquarePants,” said Kenny. “He changed my life and all of our lives. To reach the 20-year mark is a huge milestone and we wanted to celebrate by throwing a big party, Bikini Bottom style. Acting alongside my friends and fellow cast members was a true out-of-body experience. Fans are truly going to love it.”
Additional guest stars in the special include Kel Mitchell (All That), Jack Griffo (The Thundermans) and Daniella Perkins (Knight Squad).
SpongeBob launched in on 17 July 1999, and has been the most loved animated series on TV for the past 17 years. It gained theatrical releases, consumer products, Broadway musical and also the upcoming The SpongeBob Movie: It’s a Wonderful Sponge in Summer 2020.
