The first “Sonic the Hedgehog” film ended with a tease for Tails. The second ended with a tease for Shadow. Now, the upcoming third one will continue that trend.

Speaking to , director Jeff Fowler was asked if there would be any future character teases to which he confirmed there will be: “It’s fun to see the fan debates online about who’s coming up next, who’s going to be teased at the end of the film. We have a lot of the same conversations. We’ve all got our favorites on the filmmaking side, and we’re all making great cases for ‘it should be this one or that one.



’ It is fun to keep that anticipation. This movie is no different in terms of teasing new characters.” Fowler says the introduction of Shadow (Keanu Reeves) in the third film makes the world “a little bit more exciting, a little bit more dangerous”.

One thing the new film took great care to honor was the Maria Robotnik character, a terminally ill young woman who is tied to Shadow’s origin in the games and has a close friendship with him. Fowler says careful awareness and handling was involved to convey that relationship: “We certainly are very respectful about what fans expect to see and what they love about the character. We’re also very aware of the times and the right way to handle that kind of imagery in a family film.

I think we really ended in a great place. I think fans will watch this film and really appreciate Shadow and Maria. A lot of care and a lot of love has gone into telling Shadow’s story and giving fans the best movie version of the character imaginable.

” The third film will also introduce the Chao creatures from the games – here they’re part of a Chao Gardens-themed restaurant in Tokyo. “Sonic the Hedgehog 3” will be released in U.S.
