Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Drops First Tease of Keanu Reeves Playing Shadow

As a seasoned gamer with decades worth of experience under my belt, I can’t help but feel the nostalgic thrill coursing through my veins as I follow the latest developments surrounding Sonic the Hedgehog 3. The hints and teasers dropping left, right, and center have me on the edge of my seat, reminiscent of those sleepless nights spent waiting for the latest issue of Nintendo Power to arrive at my doorstep.


A few months back, an article from The Hollywood Reporter suggested that actor Keanu Reeves might play the character Shadow in Sonic the Hedgehog 3. However, Paramount has not confirmed this yet. Even though we’re all eagerly waiting for an update from the company, the official Sonic the Hedgehog TikTok account recently posted a hint. This hint takes the form of a clip from the first Sonic movie, where Sonic compliments Reeves as a “national treasure” since he starred in Speed, a 1994 film. If this isn’t enough to make you think something is happening, the title of that TikTok video is “foreSHADOWing.”

The TikTok can be found below.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but feel that the recent leak of a tantalizing clip points towards an imminent official announcement about “Sonic the Hedgehog 3”. The hints are all around us; the trailer could drop any moment now. If Paramount is to stick to their December 20th release date, it’s hard not to expect this exciting update soon. Here’s hoping we uncover more details in the days ahead!

As a die-hard fan of Sonic the Hedgehog, I can still recall the tantalizing glimpse of Shadow at the end of Sonic 2, leaving us eagerly speculating about his voice actor for the past two years. The recent rumor that Reeves will be voicing this cherished character has sent waves of excitement rippling through our community. Unfortunately, we’re still in the dark regarding the details of Sonic 3, but whispers suggest it will draw heavily from Sonic Adventure 2, a 2001 game for the Sega Dreamcast that introduced Shadow and sparked his massive fan following. Initially, Sega didn’t intend to bring Shadow back, but his enduring popularity led him to appear in numerous games and various Sonic media.

Although Paramount hasn’t said much about the upcoming third Sonic film, Sega has been generating excitement for some time now, particularly around the character Shadow. The collaboration titled Sonic x Shadow Generations, set to launch in October, is a bundle that offers a remastered version of an acclaimed Sonic game and a new title focusing on Shadow. Moreover, LEGO has announced plans for a massive build representing Shadow’s head as well!
