Paramount and SEGA will be working together on a Sonic movie once more, as they create a sequel to the popular Sonic the Hedgehog film from earlier this year. The new movie is in the early planning stages, so it's unknown if the cast, including Jim Carrey will be in the sequel, but the previous team who wrote and directed the movie--Jeff Fowler, Pat Casey, and Josh Miller--have all been confirmed to return.

Paramount Pictures and Sega Sammy confirmed on Thursday that they have commenced development on a sequel to the live-action family comedy. The sequel would reteam the filmmakers, with Jeff Fowler directing, and Pat Casey and Josh Miller writing the script.

The movie is still in the development stage so decisions have not been made yet regarding casting or a production start date.

Neal H. Moritz, Toby Ascher and Toru Nakahara are producing the pic, while Hajime Satomi, Haruki Satomi and Tim Miller are executive producing.

no shit it is after that ending. hope this one is a lot better and stop doing stupid shit like

• having him ride in cars
• he could have ran up the side of the building to collect the rings we've seen him do it
• if his so fast and can stop time how come egg man could keep up with him?

It was actually this year

Featuring an ALL NEW redesigned Sonic that everyone hates but they'll scrap at the last moment! Yay!

First movie was OK. Not as bad as it could have been. The next movie needs to get out of the real world and into Sonic's but it's probably cheaper to film on location so probably won't happen at least for the majority of the film.

Oh gosh, I bet it's about Shadow

Give him a gun, NOW.

I expected worse tbh. But I agree, they'd probably end it with them going back into Sonic's world if it does well and hope for bigger budget. Who knows.

Well to be fair how the first ended its more likely to be knuckles.

If you recall sonic 3 knuckles and all the mushrooms, which ended with robonik been there.

But contradicts because knuckles is supposed to be gurdian of the master emerald in the sky.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Knuckles is introduced, he is hunting Sonic for his tribe on Earth, presuming they were the ones at the beginning of the first film and ends up having to choose between Sonic and said tribe at the end.

It’s not the first time Sega has deviated from the ‘guarding the Master Emerald’ plot (see the OVA) and even they seem to be forgetting it in the games now.

Saw the first one on blu ray. (That's right, I dont go to the movie theater.. too expensive and junk food and too dark).

It was an okay movie.. Nice cgi technology for Sonic, thought. I will be seeing the sequel because of the ending spoiled. Curiosity. Not great movie. It was just an okay movie.

 

[Darkitz]

no shit. There's an obvious tease in the first movie.

Btw that movie is fine. Not a masterpiece, but fine.

 

[Foxi4]

Awesome! I enjoyed the first one, it was light-hearted and clearly set up for a sequel. I hope this time they'll drop a bigger budget seeing that the first one worked out well.

is it a good thing or a bad thing

• if his so fast and can stop time how come egg man could keep up with him?

Because Eggman had one of Sonic’s quills and was able to use that to harness the speed power for his own use.

It’s a really dumb explanation, but it was at least explained

 

[MasterJ360]

We saw this coming. They obviously gotta give tails and Knuckles a spotlight.

i'm predicting a 2022-2023 release. it roughly takes 6 months to write a decent script, 7 months filming so that will take you to late 2021 since filming guidelines for the current situation not kicking into 2021 I'm presuming. Post Production takes 4-5 months dependant o how much CGI is needed. so that almost certainly rules out a 2021 release. 2022 maybe plausible if everything falls in place correctly next year. however with filming more likely to need extra time going forward i do expect a 2023 release.

 

[linuxares]

The ending was kind of telling us that already

 

[Pippin666]

SUPER SAYAN SONIC PLEASE !

Pip'

 

[Pipistrele]

I hope they aren't looking for a cash grab and try to make a quality sequel

In all honesty, original one was kind of a cashgrab. A passable and partially enjoyable one, but still not something I would call a work of passion.

 

[VartioArtel]

My prediction:

Tails has been searching for Sonic because of Reasons. This forces Sonic to go back and bring Donut Lord (heh) and introduces us to how Mobius (as it was called in classic materials). Robotnik/Eggman creates Metal Sonic, uses this to return to Mobius (which is closer than Earth). This leads to a big clash involving the Echidna, Robotnik, and team Sonic.

Then at the end, the cliffhanger is Knuckles has been part of a different Echidna tribe all along, and they come to knuckles for help, leaving us with a cliffhanger as Knuckles summons the Emeralds with the help of the Master Emerald.

...Nah.
