The new additions to the cast include Krysten Ritter and Keanu Reeves. The film was released in the iconic TLC Chinese Theatre on December 16, 2024, before its wider theatrical release on December 20, 2024.

Cinemagoers nowadays expect a post-credit scene from a popular franchise film as it gives a sneak peek into the franchise's future. Sonic the Hedgehog has both a post-credit scene and a mid-credit scene. This trend has also been continued in the third installment. In the film's post-credit scene, Sonic is attacked by a group of Metal Sonic robots created by Dr. Robotnik. But a new hero, Amy Rose, saves him, leaving him in shock.

In Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles are back to save the world from a new enemy. In the second film's post-credit scene, it was revealed that the military had discovered something hidden away for 50 years, and it turned out to be Shadow the Hedgehog, one of the villains. The character is played by Keanu Reeves, which has the franchise fans excited.

But this time, Shadow is not the only villain Sonic and his team has to worry about because Jim Carrey is double malevolent as the mad scientist Dr. Ivo Robotnik and Shadow's creator, Gerald Robotnik.
