Production

Development

In February 2022, Sega Sammy Group and Paramount Pictures had been in development of a third Sonic the Hedgehog (2020) film after Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022). The film was formally announced during ViacomCBS's investor event, featuring much of the crew from the previous films.[3] A series starring Knuckles the Echidna, who had appeared in Sonic the Hedgehog 2, for Paramount+, was being developed simultaneously with the film.[3]

Casting

In April 2022, Jim Carrey–who portrays Dr. Robotnik in the films–announced that he was considering retiring from acting.[4] With his retirement, producers Neal H. Moritz and Toby Ascher confirmed that his role as Robotnik would not be recast in any sequels if he followed through with his retirement plans. However, they remained hopeful that they could develop a script good enough for him to continue the role.[5]

Release

Theatrical

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 will be released theatrically in the United States by Paramount Pictures on December 20, 2024.[6]
