For fans of the first film that arrived on Valentine’s Day in 2020, the second to be the successor for Sonic the Hedgehog will surely show to bring the heat. It was already reported previously that filming for the follow-up to commence in March. Using codename ‘Emerald Hill’ (the fist level of the Sonic the Hedgehog 2), Paramount Studios dived into shooting for what is expected to be another blockbuster success.
Prior to that, voice for the titular blue hedgehog Ben Schwartz on Twitter revealed that sequel will be arriving later in 2022 for that April. Even more, an announcement made later on in February officially revealed the title, ‘Sonic the Hedgehog 2’, what a surprise! But what brought more excitement is the implication for Tails to be included in the production.
Now in a string of leaks from the set for the coming motion picture, it is revealed that Sonic the Hedgehog 2 will be featuring what looks to be G.U.N. (Guardian Units of Nations) from Sonic Adventure 2. Additionally, a separate image shared also includes the first image of Knuckles as well that is shaking the internet.
To add more context, organization G.U.N. is recognized for the containment of Shadow the Hedgehog and other Dr. Robotnik experiments from reaching the masses. The group is also responsible for the death of Dr. Eggman’s granddaughter, Maria. It is unclear if the organization’s presence in the second film means more characters to be introduced, but the hint with “SA-2” on the helicopter only duels the flames for excitement.
As for the second leak, there was no prior indication that Knuckles would certainly be in the film. From the Illuminerdi, it was reported that possibly Aquaman star Jason Momoa would voice Knuckles the Echinda. However, there has yet to be an official follow-up to the reporting. For now, the image is the only indication to the claim.
As for other spoiled plans on behalf of Sonic the Hedgehog, a listing for ‘Sonic Colors Ultimate’ appeared earlier this month. The unannounced project is presumed to be tied to Team Sonic’s plans for Sonic the Hedgehog’s 30th anniversary taking place this year. You can read the full report by heading here.
