Sonic the Hedgehog 3 movie aiming for 2024 release, looking to cast famous actor in the role of Shadow
Shadow to be played by Urkel...in my dreams
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is still in theaters, but the film also just got added to digital platforms. You can stream it from the comfort of your own home through Paramount+, or many other platforms through digital rentals/purchase. While fans are enjoying the follow-up, SEGA and Paramount are already looking to the future.
According to Sonic screenwriters Pat Casey and Josh Miller, the team is hoping to get Sonic the Hedgehog 3 into theaters sometime in 2024. That would roughly follow the same schedule we saw between the release of the first and second movie.
Furthermore, Paramount is currently on the hunt to find an actor who can lend their talents to voicing Shadow the Hedgehog, and they’re not ruling out Hollywood’s upper echelon. No potential names were floated at this point, but I’m sure you guys have a ton of great picks in mind!

1+ y agoWouldn't it be funny if it was Danny DeVito? I also want to say it was a shock to hear this evening that Ray Liotta died. He was a great actor. Rest in peace!
Ray Liotta would have been a great Shadow.

1+ y agoI think about.. Shadow The Hedgehog has always be my favourite at Sonic franchise. And for me, it could be nice if Sega chooses Johnny Deep or Tom Cruise as Shadow voice

1+ y agoNot gonna lie just watched sonic 2 as soon as I saw shadow I got goosebumps but to a fair conclusion shadow gives off either a Ryan Reynolds voice or more of a Dwayne Johnson I think k it would be great if Ryan Reynolds voiced project shadow

1+ y agoWhy don’t they just use the same VA as the sa2 he was pretty good at conveying emotion and stuff it would seem legit cause they’re just that good

1+ y agoI still think Jason Griffith is the best Shadow there is and I want him casted again so badly, but if they are gonna insist on getting some big celeb then I think it should be Robert Pattison with his Batman voice, he sounds like a mix of Jason's and David's Shadows

1+ y agoI honestly think that we should have a classic celebrity voice Shadow… not sure which one it’d be, but seeing as how Michael Keaton did provide his acting talents for Batman (and will do so again in the years to come), I think it’d be cool to see how he’d portray Shadow.

Agreed. And this is coming from someone who has yet to see The Batman.

1+ y agoAlec Baldwin played 'The Shadow', so if he stayed in character I think he would make a great shadow the hedgehog

1+ y agoI vote for Keanu Reeves to voice Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, he's the perfect casting for the third Sonic movie
