Sonic the Hedgehog 3 trailer featuring Keanu Reeves as Shadow and Jim Carrey's return
One of the most talked-about aspects of the new Sonic the Hedgehog 3 trailer is the casting of Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog. Reeves, who is primarily known for his performances in films such as The Matrix and John Wick, fits the role of Shadow the Hedgehog, whose character wades in and out of the gray area.
Shadow's appearance in the Sonic franchise is said to tilt the scales, presenting dire implications for Sonic's friends.
Another bright spot in the trailer is Jim Carrey’s return as Dr. Robotnik. Understandably, Sonic’s long-time nemesis has seen better days owing to outlandish tussles with him. Nevertheless, the trailer depicts that Robotnik is very much ready to return, though, with a strange catch on how he will do that.
Who else is coming back in Sonic the Hedgehog 3?
Ben Schwartz reprises his role as Sonic in the animation, portraying the popular azure hedgehog. Tails and Knuckles, voiced by Colleen O’Shaughnessey and Idris Elba, respectively, are also back on this quest together with Sonic.
Actors James Marsden and Tika Sumpter reprise their roles as Tom and Maddie Wachowski, Sonic’s best human friends.
