Sonic The Hedgehog 3 The Movie Gets The Green Light & Knuckles Spin-off

Paramount Pictures, the studio behind the Sonic The Hedgehog Movies have announced that another Sonic picture has been announced, along with a live action series focussing on Knuckles. It’s a big push from the studio, pinning their hopes on Sega’s Blue Blur before the second film has even released.

In the Tweet below, Paramount confirmed that Idris Elba, the voice of Knuckles in the upcoming Sonic 2 will return for the live action series next year for Paramount’s streaming service, Paramount+.

#SonicMovie3 is officially in development from @ParamountPics and @SEGA! Plus, next year a new original #Knuckles series with @IdrisElba is coming to #ParamountPlus. #SonicMovie2 hits theaters April 8!

Annoyingly, because the second film isn’t out yet, we have no idea on what will happen in either the series or the threequel so we’ll just have to sit tight but it’s great to see one of the most successful – and actually half decent – video game-movie adaption get a well deserved ‘universe’!

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is out in April.
