Sonic the Hedgehog Officially Returns to Movie Theaters this Christmas

Across three live-action films, Sonic the Hedgehog has become a bona fide movie star, bringing in more than $1.2 billion at the box office. A fourth Sonic the Hedgehog movie is in the works for 2027, but Sega and Paramount Pictures' moneymaker will make a surprise return to movie theaters well before then. Paramount revealed Sonic's next cinematic outing on Wednesday, with the mascot making a surprise appearance in the second trailer for The Angry Birds Movie 3 .
