Sonic 3 is heavily inspired by Sonic Adventure 2, producer teases

Sonic The Hedgehog 3(2024) will reportedly take a lot of inspiration fromSonic Adventure 2, which is the best news I’ve heard all year.

The live-actionSonicfilms started off as a crude joke that no one ever expected to land, but lo and behold they’ve quickly become major cinematic events, and are even expanding into TV series likeKnuckleswhich drops later this week.

Check out the trailer forKnucklesbelow.

Back toSonic The Hedgehog 3though, there’s a lot for fans to look forward to likeJim Carrey’s returnas Dr Eggman,Keanu Reeves being cast as Shadow, as well as the news the film will take inspiration from the best Sonic game ever made.

Ascher went on tosay, “It’s going to be this giant, fun, incredible movie that obviously takes a lot fromSonic Adventure 2and some of the games that I know the core Sonic Team grew up loving.”

It’s been speculated that the upcoming film will, in essence, be a full-on adaptation of the second Adventure game’s story, meaning it’s expected we’ll see other new characters in addition to Shadow pop-up, like Amy Rose and Rouge The Bat.

This does sound like the films will be skipping overSonic Adventure 1entirely though which is a bit of a shame, but there’s always the possibility of a fourth film doing a u-turn and revisiting those plot points later instead.

Nevertheless it’s an exciting time to be a Sonic fan, with the upcoming film releasing on 20 December later this year.

That being said,Sonic The Hedgehog 3doesn’t open with Sonic escaping San Francisco on a make-shift snowboard, I’m walking out of the cinema.
