The film stars  James Marsden (Jury Duty), Jim Carrey, Tika Sumpter (Mixed-ish) and Lee Majdoub. Together with the voice talents of Ben Schwartz as Sonic, Colleen O’Shaughnessy as Tails and Idris Elba as Knuckles.

In Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Sonic and Knuckles initially found themselves on opposite sides before eventually coming together to oppose Jim Carrey’s Dr. Robotnik to keep Green Hills safe once more. There is not much known about the plot in Sonic 3 but we know Knuckles will be back.

Filming of the video game adaption like many productions was affected by the SAG-AFTRA strike. Shooting restarted on 29 November 2023 and continued through to March 28 2024.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 comes to theatres December 20, 2024.
