Sonic the Hedgehog movie sequel in the works (Variety) (Confirmed)
- Thread starter AlexFlame116

Yeah this was obviously happening and I'm legit super happy that it is. I legit love it more than Detective Pikachu honestly. It was just consistently fun to watch. DP not as much, I thought Tim was... dull, at least in the early part. Found it surprisingly hard to rewatch because of it.
The deliberately disgusting Lickitung scene really didn't help.
They should rehire the VFX artists that worked on the movie that lost they're jobs when MPC Vancouver shut down.
Watch as Jim Carry's Dr. Robotnik/Eggman completes his metamorphosis and captures animals to power his robots. Basically going full coco bananas.
Gonna guess that they're going down the TMNT Out of the Shadows/Godzilla King of the Monsters route and triple down on more fan service and references to the source material (i.e Tails, Jim Carry looking more like game Eggman, Knuckles, Chaos Emeralds, Super Sonic, etc)
Lets hope it turns out better than those movies though!

Hope the sequel takes place away from Earth for the moat part. I expect we'll see more of the Echidnas that were hunting Sonic at the start of the first movie.
Knux don't need a post credits scene. He'll be in the movie. Robotnik will trick him in to helping him against Sonic. Then at the end Knuckles will help Sonic and Tails beat Robotnik.
Chaos Emeralds and Super Sonic are a MUST for this movie. Give me a badass space battle on the big screen.
We watched it with the kids last week and I was surprised that it was actually decent. Jim Carrey was great as Robotnik.
I hope that with this one, more time is spent in an alternate world. I would love to see more scenes showing off worlds reminiscent of levels from the game.
Also, I hope you are right about the inclusions, I'd expect most of that based on the ending. I just hope Jim Carey comes back for the sequel, it was amazing he agreed to do the first one.
See above replies. If there are three things i'd bet on being introduced in this sequel; they'd be Knuckles, Chaos Emeralds and Super Sonic.
Never believed the "no plans for a sequel" claims for a second.
Oh you know it. I'm calling it now: they'll pull every element they can from the classic games for this sequel and Shadow gets teased as a post-credits stinger for Sonic 3.

Bummed it's the same creative team. Couldn't stomach the movie--terrible script, mostly. Direction wasn't great either.
Also: it isn't "reportedly" in development. It's been confirmed by Paramount and Sega.

I hate that Forces happened so soon after Mania to make people think this.
It seemed like a given after the success, but I'm glad it's official now.
Fairly sure it was the same studio(s?) from the start. They brought Tyson Hesse in to give design guidelines for the reworked segments, I don't think he was directly involved any further than that.

I'd imagine that they'll just have Tyson Hesse on-board from the start.
Agreed. While I did like Ben Schwartz's performance, it still felt weird not hearing Roger Craig Smith's voice whenever Sonic spoke (he's been voicing Sonic for a decade at this point). It was a pleasant surprise that they brought back Colleen O'Shaughnessey as Tails.
