Over the years, we have seen a lot of speedsters. We may even say that speedsters are trending. There have been the Flash, Quicksilver, Makkari, A-Train, Yoyo, Dash, and others, but we have to say that Sonic the Hedgehog has always stood out no matter what.
Maybe because he is a hedgehog, or maybe because he is an interestingly comedic cool superhero who will make root for him no matter what. Sonic has even been a blockbuster in both films!
We will tell you where you can find Sonic and what the future has for it.
Where Can We Watch Sonic The Hedgehog?
Sonic the Hedgehog is available for watch by purchase or rent on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, and Google Play Store. The films are also available on Netflix in selected countries.
What Is Sonic The Hedgehog About?
Sonic the Hedgehog is about a hedgehog named Sonic from another planet, who landed on Earth ten years ago and living in solitary ever since. One fine day, he accidentally lets his presence known worldwide and is now on the run with his role model, the sheriff, Tom Wachowski, from a mad scientist named Dr. Robotnik, who wants to use his abilities to rule over the world.
In the second film, Sonic is now getting ready to become a full-fledged superhero. Now, he has to race against time and his sidekick, Tails, to find a mysterious emerald that can destroy everything. Sonic must get to it before the evil Dr. Robotnik can embark on this journey with Knuckles’ new partner.
Both the films were directed by Jeff Fowler and written by Pat Casey and Josh Miller, including John Whittington in the second film. The first film was released in 2020, and the second film was released in 2022.
The films are based on the video game series of the same name published by Sega. Paramount Pictures released the films.
