The film is scheduled for release on December 20, 2024
Jim Carrey is set to return in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, reprising his role as Dr. Ivo Robotnik and taking on an additional character, his grandfather, Professor Gerald Robotnik.
This dual role marks a significant comeback for Carrey, who had previously hinted at retirement from acting. Director Jeff Fowler revealed that to entice Carrey back, they printed the script in 24-carat ink, fulfilling Carrey’s unique request for a script that would be “really important for people to see”.
The film, scheduled for release on December 20, 2024, will also introduce Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog, a character integral to the Sonic lore.
Fowler expressed excitement about Carrey’s commitment, noting that he not only returned but also embraced the challenge of developing a new character within the franchise
The plot will see Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles teaming up with Robotnik against Shadow, creating a complex dynamic among the characters.
Carrey’s involvement is anticipated to add depth and humour to the film, as he has become a beloved figure in the series since his first appearance in Sonic the Hedgehog (2020).
