“I can tell you that it’s super exciting. I can tell you that it really does get deeper into the universe of Sonic,” Elba previously said of the movie, via Collider. “I think 3’s probably the one for all the real diehard Sonic fans. They’re gonna get all of those Easter eggs in it. Jim [Carrey] is incredible, man. What a performance. It’s so great to work against, even though I’m never there with him, but I get to hear his voice. Bomb.”
The movie is directed by Jeff Fowler, who also directed the first two films in the franchise: 2020’s Sonic the Hedgehog and 2022’s Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Fowler also directed the pilot episode of the Knuckles spin-off series and served as an executive producer on the show.
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 will be released in United States theaters on December 20, 2024, from Paramount Pictures.
