Sonic and Tails take flight on Sonic the Hedgehog 2 poster

December 8, 2021 by Amie Cranswick

With the first trailer set to debut this week (5:00pm PT / 8:00pm ET on Thursday, 1:00am GMT on Friday), Paramount Pictures has shared the first poster for Sonic the Hedgehog 2 which sees SEGA’s iconic mascot and his pal Tails pursued by the villainous Dr. Robotnik, played once again by Jim Carrey; check it out here…

“After settling in Green Hills, Sonic is ready for more freedom, and Tom and Maddie agree to leave him home while they go on vacation. But, no sooner are they gone, when Dr. Robotnik comes back, this time with a new partner, Knuckles, in search for an emerald that has the power to both build and destroy civilizations. Sonic teams up with his own sidekick, Tails, and together they embark on a journey to find the emerald before it falls into the wrong hands.”

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is once again directed by Jeff Fowler and sees Ben Schwartz returning to voice Sonic alongside Jim Carrey (Dr. Robotnik), James Marsden (Tom Wachowski), Tika Sumpter (Maddie Wachowski), Idris Elba as the voice of Knuckles, Lee Majdoub as Agent Stone, and Colleen O’Shaughnessey as the voice of Tails.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is set for release on April 8th 2022.
