Everyone’s favorite blue hedgehog is back in this new trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog 2, which dropped during Thursday evening’s The Game Awards 2021.
Featuring heavily in this first proper look at the sequel to the beloved 2020 film Sonic the Hedgehog — which yes, still feels weird to say — is the movie’s all-star cast. James Marsden, Ben Schwartz and Jim Carrey all will reprise their original roles from the first film, while fans got their first look at Idris Elba as Knuckles the Echidna alongside the return of Colleen O’Shaughnessey to her iconic role as Tails.
And if the trailer is anything to go by, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 promises more fun, chaos and Carrey chewing even more scenery than he did in the first film as Doctor Eggman.
Though Sonic’s original design was criticized heavily by fans, Paramount Pictures delayed the original 2020 film and went back to the drawing board to get it right. Since, Sonic the Hedgehog has been praised by fans and critics alike. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 will make its way to theaters on April 8, 2022.
