February 3, 2024 by EJ Moreno

Jim Carrey isn’t giving up on the Sonic franchise just yet. After “Mr. I Don’t Do Sequels” returned for another outing with Sonic The Hedgehog 2, many thought the actor was done as he began to wind down his prolific career.

Now, we’ve learned Carrey is set to return as Dr. Robotnik as with the recent title reveal for Sonic The Hedgehog 3, we got a little taste of Carrey’s excellent villain, as well as a small tease of Shadow The Hedgehog.
