Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Will Begin Filming Without Actors During Strike

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 will begin filming without actors during the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike.

This upcoming adventure comedy is the sequel to the first two Sonic movies, which starred James Marsden, Jim Carrey, and Tika Sumpter, with Ben Schwartz as the voice of the titular hedgehog. This movie is set to begin production soon amid two ongoing strikes, with most writers and actors in Hollywood unable to work under the current conditions.

Sources have told Screen Daily that the anticipated sequel will start production in September, filming shots that will not require the use of SAG-AFTRA actors. The production will continue with actors once the Screen Actors Guild comes to an agreement with the AMPTP.

When is the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 release date?

The movie is set to release on December 20, 2024.

Schwartz is set to reprise his role as Sonic, while Pat Casey, Josh Miller, and John Whittington are set to return to write the screenplay.
