As a lifelong fan of Sonic the Hedgehog, I can confidently say that the release of Sonic 3 has been nothing short of exhilarating. Growing up with the video game series, seeing it come to life on the big screen is a dream come true. The film’s success at the box office is just the cherry on top.
As a diehard cinephile, I can’t help but feel a rush of excitement as Sonic the Hedgehog 3 storms up the box office rankings and captures the affection of families nationwide. This blue dynamo is certainly making its mark in more ways than one, with its impressive earnings being just one part of the equation. Of course, the stellar ensemble cast has undeniably contributed to the film’s success at the ticket counter.
According to Collider, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 dominated the domestic box office during its debut weekend, earning an impressive $60 million and outperforming Mufasa: The Lion King by over $20 million. Additionally, it raked in another $27 million during Christmas week, placing it among the top 25 highest-grossing movies of 2024 in the U.S., pushing its domestic box office total to a significant $87 million. Beating out films like Mean Girls and Longlegs, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 continues to thrive in U.S. theaters as it enters its second week.
In its ongoing success, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 has managed to secure a spot among the top 12 highest-earning video game movies, edging out Pokemon: The First Movie from 1999. Starring Ben Schwartz as the lead character, the movie is poised to recoup its reported $122 million budget within the coming week as it expands into international cinemas. These figures bode well for Sonic enthusiasts and those behind the scenes. With a promising start, could this mark the beginning of a lengthy film journey for Sonic and his companions? If the creators continue to deliver engaging stories, Sonic fans will undoubtedly flock to theaters to follow the adventures of their speedy hero.
What’s Next for The Fan-Favorite Hedgehog?
The universe of Sonic the Hedgehog is expanding in tandem with its video game series, welcoming fresh figures such as Reeves’ character Shadow and Jim Carrey’s recurring persona, Professor Gerald Robotnik. Given the wealth of games and collaborations at their disposal, the Sonic film franchise could extend its winning streak even further. Notably, Ben Schwartz, Idris Elba, and Colleen O’Shaughnessy are reprising their well-known roles in Sonic 3, but there’s ample opportunity for other animated characters to join the ensemble, like Keanu Reeves making his first appearance as Shadow from the John Wick franchise.
In this revised version, I have attempted to maintain the original’s tone while using simpler language:
