During an interview with Collider, composer Tom Holkenborg (better known as Junkie XL) shared his thoughts on the upcoming third Sonic the Hedgehog film by telling the site, "Actually, I saw the film for the very first time yesterday. I know what the film is all about. I've been in contact with the director, [Jeff Fowler], which I've also known for a really long time. He used to work with Tim Miller at Blur Studios. With Tim and Jeff, at the time, I did Deadpool, and after that Terminator: Dark Fate, and then after that, it was the first Sonic and then the second Sonic, and now it's the third. It's just such an exciting movie. It's just really interesting."
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is directed by Fowler and has a screenplay by Pat Casey, Josh Miller, and John Whittington. The upcoming film also stars James Marsden, Ben Schwartz, Tika Sumpter, Colleen O'Shaughnessey, Lee Majdoub, Idris Elba, and Jim Carrey, who will each reprise their respective roles from the previous installments. Keanu Reeves and Krysten Ritter will join the cast in new roles.
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is scheduled to be released in theaters on December 20, 2024.
