When we remember the bad buzz that accompanied the announcement of Sonic on the big screen in 2019 – the producers had to revise, among other things, the design of the character against a few million dollars – we can say that Paramount Pictures and its teams have come a long way. After having generated more than 306 million dollars at the box office in 2020, the film was entitled to a sequel released recently in French cinemas. Moreover, according to the latest figures, Sonic 2 has doubled Morbius’ admissions (749,372 against 403,848), statistics which should undoubtedly continue to climb during school holidays.

Although we already know that Sonic 3 is in the worksJeff Fowler, the director of the first two opuses, did not hide his desire to explore other avenues as he made it known in the context of an interview granted to comic book. Indeed, the guy would like to wear Super Smash Bros. At the movie theater. “Nothing would make me happier than getting a whole bunch of characters together in a battle royale and creating a big Super Smash Bros. thing.did he declare. But it may require a lot of work for lawyers.” If SEGA is indeed the holder of the rights to Sonic, it could indeed be another pair of sleeves with Nintendo, many of whose characters make up the Super Smash Bros. roster.

“Mario and Sonic fighting in the arena, everyone is dying to see this, right? It’s just a great classic“, added Jeff Fowler. Remember that the Kyoto firm is at work on an animated film dedicated to the glory of Mario with the collaboration of Illumination Entertainment (Minions, Me, ugly and mean), and rumors have it that Donkey Kong may be entitled to the same honors. For its part, Paramount Pictures also intends to create a series revolving around Knuckles.
