Best of 2021: Filming of Sonic 2
27 Dec 2021 By Tommy Pihl (Editor-in-Chief)
We have not seen Jim Carrey much this year in public, but one of the reasons has been because of his work on new movies. And we can't wait for the sequel "Sonic the Hedgehog 2" of his big hit from last year. The director Jeff Fowler tweeted the good news on March 15:
Lights, camera, hedgehog. Production on Sonic the Hedgehog 2
starts TODAY! #SonicMovie2
The following 3 months until June 25 the production filmed in Vancouver and Hawaii. Some days we got a glimpse from the set of tanks, helicopters and many army men. Another day we saw some of the stars James Marsden and Tika Sumpter performing an action scene. And crew adjusting stand-in props for Sonic, Tails and Knuckles, which help give the cast a better idea of the height of the CGI characters they�re going to be interacting with. But most interesting was that we also got to see Jim Carrey in a small video clip. Photos can be found in the Gallery. Thanks also to the director for some interesting bits from the set.
One example was wishing Sonic an explosive 30th birthday:

Now all we can is wait til April 8, 2022 for the big theatrical premiere which is only 100 days away. So be sure to check back for more news the coming weeks.
In the beginning of the month we got the first poster and trailer and last week a special crossover promotion with "The Matrix Resurrections" with a trailer and new poster. What we have seen so far looks very promising!
Here's the synopsis:
After settling in Green Hills, Sonic is ready for more freedom, and Tom and Maddie agree to leave him home while they go on vacation. But, no sooner are they gone, when Dr. Robotnik comes back, this time with a new partner, Knuckles, in search for an emerald that has the power to both build and destroy civilizations. Sonic teams up with his own sidekick, Tails, and together they embark on a journey to find the emerald before it falls into the wrong hands. Being directed by Jeff Fowler, and starring Jim Carrey, James Marsden, and Ben Schwartz.
