As a lifelong gamer who grew up with Sonic and his pals, I must say that Jeff Fowler and his team have struck gold with the Sonic film franchise. With each movie introducing new characters from the games, it feels like I’m reliving my childhood all over again!
Video game movies have been experiencing a resurgence in popularity, with films like Jeff Fowler’s “Sonic the Hedgehog” (available for streaming with a Paramount+ subscription) being highly acclaimed and spawning franchises. The finale of “Sonic 2” hinted at the arrival of Shadow the Hedgehog, and Fowler has suggested that the third film will introduce another popular video game character – I’ve certainly got some ideas!
In the closing scene of the initial Sonic film, Tails made his appearance, and sequel introduced Knuckles. It’s been revealed that these characters will continue to be part of the series, with each potentially getting their own spin-offs. As for Sonic 3, details are scarce, but it appears a similar trend might continue in the upcoming film. During an interview with Entertainment Weekly about the sequel, director Jeff Fowler hinted that additional characters from the games will join the cast, stating:
Engaging to observe the lively discussions among fans online about who might appear next, and who could be hinted at towards the end of the film. We often find ourselves having similar debates. Everyone has their preferred candidates from the production team, and everyone is making compelling arguments for ‘it should be this person or that one.’ Maintaining such excitement is always enjoyable. This movie is no exception when it comes to building anticipation by hinting at new characters.
It seems quite intriguing! It looks like the Sonic franchise has found a successful formula and it doesn’t appear to be changing any time soon. This likely means another suspenseful moment or end-credits scene, featuring a character from a Sonic video game, setting up the fourth movie. Just a heads-up, don’t forget to watch the trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 below:
Given that we’ve learned more Sonic characters are joining the roster, who could Jeff Fowler be hinting at? As a fellow gamer, I’m hoping for the appearance of popular picks like Amy the Hedgehog or Rogue the Bat. It’s worth noting that so far, no female characters from the franchise have been incorporated into the action!
Amy boasts a deep-rooted passion for games, often identified as Sonic’s most ardent admirer. Her affection for the blue protagonist remains strong, despite being unreturned. It would be exciting to witness her iconic mallet incorporated in battle scenarios too.
In the sequel to “Sonic Adventure 2,” called simply “Sonic Adventure 2,” a character named Rogue the Bat made her first appearance. This game forms the foundation for the third Sonic movie. At first, Rogue was portrayed as an antagonist and treasure hunter, but it was later unveiled that she was actually a spy posing as a villain, gathering information on the bad guys. It would be intriguing to witness this intricate relationship unfold in a movie setting, and Rogue is another beloved character from the Sonic universe’s backstory.
The secrets will come to light when “Sonic the Hedgehog 3” premieres in theaters on December 20th. In the meantime, let’s discuss the scheduled release dates for movies in 2025 while we speculate.
