Sonic The Hedgehog 3 Trailer OUT: Keanu Reeves Joins Franchise As Shadow; Faces Off Against THIS Returning Villain

As a lifestyle expert with a rich background in the world of cinema and pop culture, I must say that I am genuinely thrilled about Keanu Reeves joining the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise! It’s always a treat to witness such iconic actors stepping into new roles, especially when they’re part of a beloved series like this.


Keanu Reeves is set to make a comeback on the big screen as Shadow the Hedgehog. The upcoming third installment of Sonic the Hedgehog, distributed by Paramount Pictures, will introduce the audience to a new antagonist, the main character of the blue speedster. With Keanu Reeves joining the cast, his character is expected to engage in combat with the villain, Mr. Robotnix, portrayed once again by Jim Carrey.

At the start, the narrator reveals that Shadow’s tale mirrored yours, Sonic, but unlike you who found companionship and friendship, Shadow encountered only sorrow and heartache instead. Interestingly, the creators and studio announced the third film starring the Blue Comet before the second installment of the series even premiered in cinemas. Furthermore, the closing credits scene of the previous movie subtly suggested that Shadow might make an appearance.

In the film’s cast lineup, Ben Schwartz lends his voice to Sonic, while Jim Carrey and Joel McHale (Reeves) are also part of the team. Joining them are James Marsden, Tika Sumpter, and Lee Majdoub, who will reappear in their respective roles. Additionally, keep an eye out for newcomers Colleen O’Shaughnessey and Idris Elba.

In the initial trailer launched by Paramount, it appears that Dr. Robotnix is feeling down and irritated because he couldn’t overcome Sonic in their encounter. Yet, he expresses gratitude towards the emergence of Shadow, the Hedgehog, who might aid him in his future battles against Sonic.

Among the series’ actors, Idris Elba lent his voice to a character in the Sonic Knuckles spinoff. In this show, his character takes on the mentor role, agreeing to guide Wade as an apprentice and impart the knowledge of Echidna warrior techniques.

During this time period, the narrative of the series unfolded between the events of Sonic 2 and the upcoming release. Furthermore, Ian Nathan Schwartz and Colleen O’Shaughnessy reprised their roles as Sonic and Tails, while Adam Pally took on the character of Sheriff Wade Whipple, a role he played in the initial two “Sonic” movies within this series.

As a devoted admirer of the Sonic film franchise, I’m thrilled to share that it has been a massive success at the box office. The initial installment graced our theaters in February 2020, and its sequel followed suit in April of the same year. Collectively, these movies raked in an impressive $724 million worldwide.

Just like the past two installments, I’m beyond excited that Sonic the Hedgehog 3 will be helmed by the brilliant Jeff Fowler! Mark your calendars, fellow fans, as we’re racing to cinemas on December 20, 2024!
