Paramount Pictures is now dealing with the CGI-live motion Sonic the Hedgehog movie.
The film rights to Sonic the Hedgehog have been acquired by Paramount Pictures, with Sony Pictures now not concerned within the challenge.
Fast & Furious producer Neal Moritz will still produce the Sonic film alongside Deadpool director Tim Miller who’s govt producer.
It will probably be directed by Miller’s Blur Studio collaborator Jeff Fowler, in line with The Hollywood Reporter.
The Sonic film was announced in 2014 as a collaboration between Sony Pictures and Sega Sammy’s Marza Animation Planet. At the time, it was within the early planning levels.
News on the movie went darkish till 2016 when Sammy Corporation founder and SEGA boss Hajime Satomi stated to anticipate the Sonic the Hedgehog movie to launch in theaters throughout 2018.
It was being written by Evan Susser and Van Robichaux of Upright Citizens Brigade fame. IMDB still has the duo listed within the writing credit amongst others.
Obviously with 2018 winding down, the Sonic movie is now not anticipated this yr. At current, it’s slated for 2019 and listed in pre-production.
The newest Sonic the Hedgehog recreation, Sonic Mania, has accomplished rather well since its launch in August. Fans and critics alike are pleased with the title, and it’s at the moment the highest-rated new Sonic game in 15 years.
Our personal Alex Donaldson even called Sonic Mania “an amazing must-play love letter to Sega’s finest.”
Sonic Mania is accessible on PC, PS4, Switch and Xbox One. Sonic Forces is out this vacation.
