Just one day before the theatrical release of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Paramount Pictures has confirmed the next movie in the series. First reported by Variety, Sonic the Hedgehog 4 will release in theaters in spring 2027.
No other details about what Sonic the Hedgehog 4 would be about were revealed. The only thing we can guess comes from spoilers of the latest movie, including the post-credits scene that reveals another new character.
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 features the return of Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles along with Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik. Joining the cast for the third film is Keanu Reeves who voices Shadow the Hedgehog. And, yes, Shadow does have his gun.
Based on early reviews, the latest movie in the franchise is going to be yet another success. According to Variety, it’s expected to make anywhere from $55-$60 million at North American theaters on opening weekend. The first two movies pulled in roughly $725.4 million.

Amy will not sell a Sonic movie I think this goes to streaming
Big disappointment no Silver no interest! Jelly Roll sucks too he shouldn’t have had his music in the movie it doesn’t fit this last one.
Amy and Metal don’t have the same appeal Shadow has if anything this hurts the new movie. Silver would bring hype, Amy and Metal don’t bring that and after Shadow a lot of people will just pass on this one and waiting until 2027 for a potential Silver reveal is too long a wait and even then it feels very unlikely he’s showing up but even if he does it’s way too long a wait 2032?
The characters they picked won’t retain hype that long honestly really bad moves
It should have been a movie setting up Sonic 2006 with Silver showing up at the end of Sonic 3. This movie is going to flop in 2027. Metal and Amy don’t bring any hype, Silver did and was the right step after Shadow. This was a horrible decision who made this choice? Unlike the Sonic design it’s too late to walk this back. Amy is the most disliked character I know boomers falsely claim its Shadow no it’s Amy. A lot of girls hate her and “fixing” her into a girl boss will be problematic. Metal is just a character boomers like the younger generation who was hyped for Shadow will not be hyped for him they grew up with Sonic 2006 seeing that finally get adapted would have been the right move not this. It’s sad this movie series goes out like this RIP.
Jelly Roll is a fake he talks shut about his “friends” he snuck into country after his failed rap career and he’s a sex freak his wife is a sex worker and they have orgies openly talk about it too. His friends are frauds too he’s a snake. Having him tied to this movie was a horrible decision.
We all know this movie should have had Silver at the end not Amy and Metal. These guys show how out of touch they are but my guess was it’s a bait and switch. Win fans over with the redesign win them with Sonic 2 and now 3 then give you the garbage in Sonic 4 and they don’t care since enough normies will watch this the same way they watch marvel slop.
Lack 0f interest it should have been Silver
Amy and Metal after Shadow is the stupidest decision. After Shadow they should have done Silver. Amy is just lame and watch them cast Zendaya to voice her. They’ve gotten too full of themselves. I mean you can’t top Sonic 3 with 4 now because Metal and Amy just don’t outdo the Shadow story. Amy is just insufferable!
This won’t have the same impact

The post credits did nothing to excite me. Silver would have but what they did nothing.
Movie was not great have less hope for 4 too much far humor and not serious
