The Sonic the Hedgehog film franchise has emerged as one of the unlikeliest of success stories in the video game adaptation space. Originally a laughing stock thanks to its now-infamous original character model of the series’ star, the team reworked the character model and doubled down on action, comedy, and heart to deliver one of the biggest ever film franchises based on a video game. Following the success of Sonic the Hedgehog 3<\/em>, which introduced Keanu Reeves as Shadow and grossed nearly $500 million at the worldwide box office, series director Jeff Fowler has shared that Sonic the Hedgehog 4 <\/em>has begun production.<\/p>\n Taking to Instagram and X, Fowler shared an image of him holding a clapperboard as well as what appears to be the hammer of Amy Rose, who was revealed in a post-credits scene of Sonic the Hedgehog 3<\/em>. Recently, actress Kristen Bell was confirmed to provide the voice of Amy in the upcoming fourth film. The social media post said, “Ready 4 Action. #SonicMovie4 now filming. In Theaters Worldwide March 2027,” and included the photo below.<\/p>\n Sonic the Hedgehog 4<\/em> is slated to arrive in theaters on March 19, 2027.
