Some good news for Sonic fans this morning with Paramount Pictures & Sega confirming Sonic The Hedgehog is getting a sequel.
Sonic the Hedgehog started down a rocky road with the first trailer leading to the fans saying the movie was doomed. This caused Paramount Pictures to re-do all CGI around Sonic to make him look like Sonic which then led to a surprising result at the box office. The movie brought in around 306million USD on a budget of 90 odd million. The time in the movies was cut short due to the coronavirus pandemic and we will see the release of the movie onto DVD/Blu-Ray from June 3
*** SPOILER ALERT ***
The first film ended with Eggman/Robotnik, having shed his more presentable black-suited appearance for full-blown video game giant moustache cosplay ensemble, stranded on a mushroom kingdom planet, while a post-credits scene revealed that Sonic’s sidekick Tails had arrived.
So maybe this sequel will be a lot more like the games than the very-fast-ET premise of the last movie.
The original talent team behind the movie are reporting all coming back for the sequel but none of the cast has been confirmed for the sequel as of yet. Stay tuned for more developments around the sequel announcement.
Are you looking forward to seeing the sequel? Were you a fan of the first one? Let us know what you think.
