What is Sonic the Hedgehog 3 About?

This holiday season, Sonic the Hedgehog is back on the big screen for his most action-packed adventure yet! Joining forces once again are Sonic, Knuckles, and Tails as they confront a formidable new foe – Shadow, a shadowy antagonist who wields powers unlike any they’ve encountered before. Overpowered in every aspect, Team Sonic embarks on a quest to forge an unexpected alliance to thwart Shadow and safeguard the planet.

Jeff Fowler is back at the helm, bringing together our stellar ensemble that includes Jim Carrey, Ben Schwartz, James Marsden, Tika Sumpter, Idris Elba, Colleen O’Shaughnessey, Natasha Rothwell, Shemar Moore, Adam Pally, Lee Majdoub, as well as fresh faces Alyla Browne and Krysten Ritter. The franchise welcomes Keanu Reeves who will play the character of Shadow the Hedgehog.

With excitement mounting, fans are gradually preparing themselves for the grand unveiling coming up later this year. Interestingly, the Knuckles series on Paramount+ serves as a precursor to Sonic the Hedgehog 3 in certain aspects. As revealed by director Jeff Fowler to DiscussingFilm, it’s suggested that fans catch up with this series to get themselves properly hyped for the upcoming sequel.

Wow, it’s quite early to talk about [the Knuckles series], but let me tell you, once we wrapped up the film, I had no doubt that audiences would grow fond of this character. They’ll adore Idris Elba portraying Knuckles and will be eager for more adventures of Knuckles,” Fowler shared. “At present, our primary goal is to ignite excitement and encourage people to watch the sequel. After that, we’ll see what happens next. Knuckles is such a fascinating character with numerous avenues for development that could captivate fans, so hopefully, we can explore those possibilities soon. For now, I’m simply thrilled to get everyone excited about the sequel.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 hits theaters on December 20th.
