New ‘Sonic The Hedgehog’ Image Shows The Blue Speedster In Action

A new look at Paramount’s live-action Sonic the Hedgehog movie has surfaced online.

Promotional images recently revealed Sonic’s live-action movie design and now fans can get another look at the iconic blue speedster thanks to the Tails’ Channel Twitter page. You can check out the image below.

The charcater’s live-action look has been criticized by many fans, as well as the character’s original creator, Yuji Naka. As the former head of Sonic Team, Naka was one of the people responsible for the creation of the speedster but he’s not impressed with the movie design, which he believes is unbalanced.

An official synopsis has yet to be released. It’s known that the Sonic the Hedgehog film will follow Small-town sheriff Tom Wachowski and the titular character as they embark on a road trip to San Francisco in a race to recover the blue hedgehog’s rings before the villainous Dr. Robotnik.

Westworld actor James Marsden stars in the film along with Ben Schwartz who provides the voice for the film’s Sonic. The first official look at Jim Carrey in the role of Dr. Robotnik has yet to be revealed; however, the actor has assured fans his take on the antagonist will be live-action, rather than a CGI version of the video game character like the titular Hedgehog.

Directed by Jeff Fowler from a script written by Patrick Casey, Josh Miller, and Oren Uziel, Sonic the Hedgehog also stars Tika Sumpter as Mrs. Wachowski, Lee Majdoub as Stone and Frank C. Turner as Crazy Carl. Adam Pally, Natasha Rothwell, Neal McDonough, Debs Howard, and Elfina Luk also star in undisclosed roles. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice composer Tom Holkenborg, a.k.a. Junkie XL, will score the film.

Sonic the Hedgehog is scheduled to be released in theaters on November 8, 2019.
