Netflix accidentally spilled the beans
If I was a studio bigwig — a promotion I’ve been passed over formanytimes now — I would’ve been hesitant to greenlight aSonic the Hedgehogseries before 2020. Then, after thesuccess of the movie, I would’ve tripped over myself rushing to greenlight it. Being a bigwig means you have to analyze market factors, and the people demand moreSonicin their markets.
Netflix is giving the people what they want. Sega is teaming up with kids’ entertainment development companies Wild Brain HQ and Man of Action to create a 3D animatedSonic the Hedgehogshow. However, it’s at least a year away because it’s not expected to premiere until 2022.
Now here’s the annoying part (for me, probably not for you). Netflix deleted the tweet shortly after posting. Apparently this announcement was a little premature, a bittoo fastif you will. Fortunately, @Wario64 caught a screenshot:

Will it be good? Baby, when it comes toSonic, the highest highs and the lowest lows are possible. Trainwreck, critically-acclaimed masterpiece, and everything in between — it’s all on the table. Give it a couple years to find out whichSonicwe’re getting this time.
