The fourth installment of the live-action "Sonic the Hedgehog" film series officially began production yesterday, with series director Jeff Fowler announcing the news to fans by posting a behind-the-scenes photo from the set (see link below).
Meanwhile, Oscar-winning actor Ben Kingsley has reportedly joined the cast for this installment. Renowned entertainment journalist Jeff Sneider exclusively revealed Kingsley's casting earlier on his blog, "The InSneider," though he did not specify the role, only noting that it would be a live-action performance, not a voice role.
The rest of the "Sonic the Hedgehog 4" cast is expected to see the return of Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik, Keanu Reeves as Shadow, Idris Elba as Knuckles, James Marsden as Tom, and Ben Schwartz as Sonic, all reprising their roles from the previous films. Previously confirmed new cast additions also include Kristen Bell, who will voice Amy. The film is slated for a March 19, 2027 release in North America.
