SpongeBob’s SquarePants’ best friend, Patrick Star, will soon be the focus of a new spinoff series called “The Patrick Star Show.”
The project will also revolve around Patrick’s family and will be headed by the team behind “SpongeBob SquarePants,” as per an exclusive report by Deadline yesterday, Aug. 10.
Voiceover recordings have already begun with actor Bill Fagerbakke lending his voice to the pink starfish.
The spinoff will also consist of mostly all-new characters voiced by a fresh set of actors. However, the original “SpongeBob SquarePants” cast members are set to reprise their roles in occasional appearances on the show.
According to the report, the program’s first season will run for 13 episodes.
Along with the upcoming “The Patrick Star Show,” Nickelodeon announced last year that another spinoff titled “Kamp Koral” is already in the works. The said program will revolve around a 10-year-old SpongeBob SquarePants at a summer camp.
“Kamp Koral” is set to premiere on the streaming platform CBS All Access next year. Ryan Arcadio /ra
