Fans of SEGA’s blue hedgehog, rejoice: Sonic is returning to the silver screen with at least two more films by the end of 2028.
Sonic the Hedgehog 4 was officially announced a while ago, and though little is known of the movie and its plot, it’s pencilled in for theatrical release in March 2027.
However, as reported by Variety, Paramount Pictures has also revealed a ‘Sonic Universe Event Film’ is scheduled for December 2028.
This is a separate project from the aforementioned Sonic 4, and given its label as a Sonic universe event film, it sounds like a spin-off, perhaps focusing on a different character.
While it’s presumed that core cast and crew will return for these movies, including director Jeff Fowler and voice talent Ben Schwartz (Sonic), we’re pretty much in the dark as to the finer details.
Sonic the Hedgehog 3, released last year, found big success, making nearly half a billion dollars at the box office.
It centred around the introduction of Shadow the Hedgehog, a powerful adversary voiced by Keanu Reeves.
The series of movies has been a big hit, so it’s not really much surprise that there’s more to come in the next few years.
