Sonic the Hedgehog is one of the most popular cartoons of all time. If you’re a fan of Sonic and you’re interested in getting a glimpse of the animated movie, you’ll want to know when it will be available on the Paramount Plus streaming service. In this article, we’ll go over everything you need to know, from the release date to the cast members. We also talk about the streaming schedule for the movie, so you can plan your viewing accordingly.
Colleen O’Shaughnessey and Idris Elba join the cast
The Sonic the Hedgehog movie franchise is back in the theatres and in the process minting new fans. This time, Tails and Sonic must deal with a dangerous villain. With the help of a new friend, they must stop Dr. Robotnik, a vengeful doctor who is out to get the Master Emerald.
Colleen O’Shaughnessey is a voice actor who has voiced Miles “Tails” Prower in many different “Sonic” games. In addition, she has voiced Ino Yamanaka in the “Naruto” anime series and Sora Takenouchi in the Digimon franchise. Among her other roles, she has been in several animated television shows.
Idris Elba is another prominent voice actor who will be joining the Sonic 2 cast. Elba is famous for his role as Heimdall in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but he has also voiced many other characters. His most notable role, though, is as Luther in the BBC One series. Now he will be returning to the big screen as Knuckles the Echidna, a character he first appeared as in the Sonic the Hedgehog game.
In the upcoming sequel, Knuckles the Echidna will have a major role. He has been missing from the original Sonic the Hedgehog film, but will be making his live-action debut in the sequel. As a result, Knuckles is one of the main cast members. It’s been expected that Tails will have a larger role in the film.
Colleen O’Shaughnessey will reprise her role as Tails in the next movie. She has been voice acting since the 1990s. Her voice has been used in several “Sonic” video games, including “Sonic Boom” and “Sonic Forces”. After the release of “Sonic Boom,” she was approached about voicing the character in the sequel. While she originally wanted to play Tails in the original Sonic movie, she ultimately decided she would be more comfortable with the role in the sequel.
Jim Carrey, who will be playing the character of Doctor Robotnik, has a lot of experience as a comic book villain. Some of his past roles include Bruce Almighty and Ace Ventura. Other than that, he has appeared in several films and TV shows, such as the Batman series. Although he is famous for his witty comedy, he is also very serious in his work.
While O’Shaughnessy will not be voicing the human side of Sonic, she does play Randall. She told CBR that she has already learned some modulation techniques for the character and that she plans to reprise the role in the future.
Along with the voice actors, the movie also features actors Tika Sumpter and James Marsden. Both of these actors have worked on various TV shows, such as “Breaking Bad,” “Criminal Minds,” and “The Walking Dead,” and will also be featured in the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 movie.
Streaming schedule
If you’re a fan of Sonic the Hedgehog and the Sega game franchise, then you’ll be excited to know that the sequel will be making its way to streaming services soon. In fact, it was already announced that the film would be hitting the digital and physical marketplaces in August, but when will it be available for streaming on Paramount Plus? The answer to that question is not very easy to pin down, but it’s more likely than you think.
While we don’t have any official information on when the streaming service will be invading your home, we do have a good idea of the timing. First, Paramount will make the film available to its subscribers in a two-movie bundle. After that, it’ll be available to watch in the US and around the world. However, it won’t debut in Japan until Aug. 19, so those who want to see the sequel early will have to be patient.
For those who don’t know, the two-movie bundle will include the newly released Sonic the Hedgehog 2, which has a runtime of 122 minutes. As a bonus, it’ll come with a nifty animated short. It’s also the first Sonic movie to feature a new antagonist. This means that the sequel is introducing a new cinematic threat, which should be interesting.
The movie is also a good example of a video game-to-film adaptation. The film is directed by Jeff Fowler, and stars James Marsden and Shemar Moore. They’re joined by Adam Pally and Tika Sumter. Also, Jim Carrey returns as Dr. Robotnik, who explains the true source of the ultimate power.
What’s more, Paramount has decided to break the tradition of 90-day theatrical releases. Instead, the movie will be available to stream 45 days after its theatrical release in the US. Despite that, it’s unlikely that it’ll hit Netflix or Disney+. You can expect it to arrive on the digital and physical markets in late August.
To help you prepare for the big day, Paramount has released some great promotional material. One of the most notable is the two-movie bundle, which you can find on the digital and physical marketplaces. The first of the two is the “Sonic the Hedgehog” movie, which features the return of two of the series’ most iconic characters.
On top of the two-movie bundle, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 will also be available to stream on Paramount Plus. In the future, the company plans to introduce a spinoff series centered on Knuckles the Echidna.
Finally, the Paramount Plus website has a link to a page dedicated to the “Sonic the Hedgehog” video game. That’s probably not what you’re looking for, but it’s a nice touch. When it comes to streaming, it’s worth knowing which movies and television shows to look for.
Release date
If you’re a fan of the original Sonic the Hedgehog video game, then you’re probably excited to learn that the sequel is coming to the big screen. The movie, which is a follow-up to the popular game, will be starring Ben Schwartz as Sonic and Idris Elba as Knuckles.
It’s not surprising that a movie based on a video game would be successful at the box office. In fact, Sonic the Hedgehog has grossed over $330 million at the global box office and has been the best-performing video game movie of all time. But what about its streaming release?
Typically, Paramount will only release films on their streaming services after 45 days have passed from the movie’s theatrical release. In addition to its own offerings, Paramount Plus offers thousands of titles to stream, including a variety of must-watch shows and sports. With the service, you can watch exclusives from MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, BET, and The Smithsonian Channel.
While there’s no official confirmation of when Sonic the Hedgehog 2 will be available for streaming, Paramount has confirmed that it will be arriving alongside Paramount Plus in May. This breaks the old tradition of a 90-day theatrical release.
Earlier this year, Paramount announced that the most successful Sonic the Hedgehog emote would be the one involving Knuckles. The Sonic the Hedgehog sequel will feature a new antagonist as well as a spin-off series centered on Knuckles the Echidna.
It’s also worth noting that the Sonic the Hedgehog movie was released on Blu-ray on August 9th. It also will be made available for rent and purchase on digital platforms. As for the streaming service, the sequel will be available on Paramount+ on May 24.
It’s also important to note that while the sequel might be the best-selling video game movie of all time, it’s not the first video game movie to be made into a movie. The first one was the “Sonic the Hedgehog” movie, which is available on Netflix in some countries.
However, the Sonic the Hedgehog sequel has been delayed, due to controversy over lifelike CGI. Ultimately, the film is expected to be released in 2022. Originally scheduled to debut in 2019, the Sonic the Hedgehog sequel will now have its world premiere in May.
It’s likely that Sonic the Hedgehog 2 will be released on various digital platforms, including Netflix, but will only make its way to Paramount+ in the United States. Since the service does not yet exist in Australia, Canada, Japan, or South Africa, it’s possible that Paramount will wait until the movie launches in those countries before making it available for streaming.
Lastly, the Sonic the Hedgehog film is also the largest video game adaptation to be made into a movie. At 122 minutes, the sequel is longer than its predecessor, which is a notable accomplishment for a video game movie.
