2020’s Sonic the Hedgehog movie had its fair share of issues during its production, but ultimately, people warmed up to it, and it became a hit, spawning an upcoming sequel, which releases in April. And it seems the journey of the blue Hedgehog and friends in that universe will continue beyond that.
Through a post on Sonic the Hedgehog Twitter, the company announced that a third Sonic the Hedgehog movie is currently in the works with Paramount. CEO of Sega Corporation, Haruki Satomi, also announced that a live action series based on the character Knuckles, who is set to debut in the upcoming movie sequel, is set to premiere on Paramount+ in 2023, with Idris Elba reprising his role from the movie.
Satomi also talked about the future of the franchise, saying that 2022 is shaping up to be a significant year for it, with the second film coming out in April and Sonic Frontiers coming out this holiday, adding that Sega looks forward to continuing to bring memorable moments and experiences to fans.
