The next film in Sonic’s hugely successful film franchise is moving to a holiday release on Dec. 20, 2024 — but Doctor Robotnik star Carrey said he was « fairly serious » about retiring after Sonic 2
The third Sonic the Hedgehog movie has been given a release date: Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles will return to theaters in a film presumably called Sonic the Hedgehog 3 on Dec. 20, 2024.
The series is sticking to its schedule of releasing every two years, then, although this third installment is shifting from the springtime launch-pads of the previous two entries to a winter holiday slot.
This is a gesture of confidence from studio Paramount, which was delighted with the success of Sonic 2. The sequel, released in April 2022, has surpassed its predecessor to become the most successful video game movie of all time. Paramount is surely hoping the holiday family market will bring even greater rewards third time around.
