Final Sonic The Hedgehog 2 trailer offers up speedy adventure for the upcoming sequel

Fresh off releasing a teaser for the final trailer yesterday, Paramount Pictures has released the final trailer for Sonic The Hedgehog 2 and it looks like the sequel is going to offer up even more sonic speed adventure compared to its predecessor.

Per the film’s official synopsis, “The world’s favorite blue hedgehog is back for a next-level adventure in SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 2. After settling in Green Hills, Sonic is eager to prove he has what it takes to be a true hero. His test comes when Dr. Robotnik returns, this time with a new partner, Knuckles, in search for an emerald that has the power to destroy civilizations. Sonic teams up with his own sidekick, Tails, and together they embark on a globe-trotting journey to find the emerald before it falls into the wrong hands. From the filmmakers behind The Fast and the Furious and Deadpool, SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 2 stars James Marsden, Ben Schwartz as the voice of Sonic, Tika Sumpter, Natasha Rothwell, Adam Pally, Lee Majdoub and Jim Carrey returning, alongside new additions Shemar Moore, with Idris Elba as the voice of Knuckles and Colleen O’Shaughnessey as the voice of Tails.”

The first Sonic The Hedgehog had quite the road to financial success which began with widespread negativity following the first trailer for the film that led to fan backlash and the film being delayed from its initial release date. Being that video game films tend to be a bust at the box office and with critics, all signs pointed to Sonic being DOA but the film was greeted with a positive reception, with Jim Carrey’s portrayal of Dr. Robotnik getting notable praise. Sonic The Hedgehog also had the distinction of being one of the final notable films to play without much interruption in theaters before the COVID-19 pandemic delayed every major title that followed in 2020. The film ultimately grossed $148.9 million at the domestic box office and $319.7 million worldwide.
