Sonic the Hedgehog 3 continues the part-live-action franchise with a new adventure featuring Sonic, voiced by Ben Schwartz, and his companions, Knuckles (Idris Elba), Tails (Colleen O'Shaughnessy), and a new character, Shadow the Hedgehog (Keanu Reeves). The film also stars James Marsden and Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik.
Even by cartoon standards, Sonic the Hedgehog doesn’t look much like a hedgehog. But nor presumably was he ever meant to. When he made his debut as a video game mascot in 1991, his cute-but-edgy look – big eyes, spiky blue mane – hinted his Japanese designers might have taken some cues from characters onSonic iin Sonic the Hedgehog 3, which is the kind of cross-cultural mash-up that might be intriguingly baffling.
In his current big-screen incarnation, where he’s voiced by US comic Ben Schwartz, he’s said to be from outer space and resembles a non-canine member of Paw Patrol, fighting crime alongside a couple of fluffy associates of similarly indeterminate species. OK, technically, Knuckles is an echidna and Tails is a fox, but I can’t be the only one who had to check the Sonic wiki for confirmation.
