In what seems to be a shoutout to Baby Yoda from The Mandalorian, the Sonic the Hedgehog film has its own little mascot in Baby Sonic. Revealed in a new trailer, the design isn’t too far off from the current Sonic. Which is a good thing, make no mistake. Check it out below (and yes, that is the Intro music from Sonic Mania).
Sonic the Hedgehog’s first live action film had a very interesting year overall. The first trailer received huge backlash due to the design of Sonic, which led to the film being delayed to 2020 for redesign. Of course, the redesign saw much better response, even if the rest of the film is still very iffy at this point.
The redesign reportedly cost $5 million overall so it doesn’t seem to have been a huge budget sink. The film releases on February 14th 2020 for cinemas. We’ll see if nostalgia can propel it to success.
