Sonic the Hedgehog 3, heading to theaters on December 20, has a brand new trailer. In late August, the movie unveiled Keanu Reeves as Shadow, and the most recent trailer is every Shadow fan’s dream. Although the trailer is under two and a half minutes long, it’s full of references to Sonic Adventure 2 and Shadow the Hedgehog. Yes, they even gave Shadow a gun. We also hear more of Keanu’s interpretation of Shadow, which to this point sounds spot-on.
It’s amazing how far the franchise has come for the reason that first trailer for the initial Sonic the Hedgehog movie. There are likely some fans preferring to pretend that version of Sonic never existed, especially because it became the butt of a joke in 2022’s Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers. It’s great to see Sonic the Hedgehog hitting his stride on the large screen, since more entertaining video game adaptations are all the time welcome.
