Ice Spice Eyes More Animation After SpongeBob Voice Debut

She presents the role as a natural step from music, spotlighting a new original song for the Dec. 19 film.

Overview

  • Speaking in Time’s special SpongeBob issue, she said she wants future voice roles and specifically named Hello Kitty and Betty Boop.
  • Her voice-acting debut comes as Isis Gaston in The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants.
  • She wrote an original song for the film titled Big Guy, created with Riot and Lil Yachty before adding SpongeBob-themed vocabulary.
  • She said making music feels like “low-key voice acting,” describing the two disciplines as closely aligned.
  • A longtime fan, she accepted the offer immediately and called it a full-circle moment after her early track Bikini Bottom; the movie opens Dec. 19 with the original cast and guest voices including George Lopez and Regina Hall.
