Sonic the Hedgehog Shows Up in New Angry Birds 3 Trailer for Some Reason

Sonic the Hedgehog appears unexpectedly in a new trailer for The Angry Birds Movie 3. The clip features him sprinting alongside a cheerful yellow Angry Bird named Chuck, voiced by Josh Gad of Frozen fame. The two birds are seen laughing and joking about some mysterious activities in the woods. In the video games, Sonic typically endeavors to safeguard woodland creatures, making his presence among the Angry Birds somewhat fitting.

It's conceivable he could teach them innovative methods for launching themselves at pig structures. This might be a suitable response to the pigs. This marks the first Angry Birds film under Paramount's direction, following Sony's previous stewardship of the first two installments. Paramount not only holds the movie rights to Sonic but also collaborates with Sega for the project.

Jason Sudeikis reprises his role as Red, while John Rice takes the director's seat. Rice had previously co-directed the second movie and served as the lead storyboard artist for the first film. Shuji Utsumi, President and COO at Sega, expressed excitement upon announcing The Angry Birds Movie 3, stating that the film aligns well with Sega's transmedia strategy to enhance the value of its intellectual properties across various media platforms.

The film is set to hit theaters on December 23. For those unwilling to witness Sonic relegated to a cameo, there's also the upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog 4, slated for release on March 19.
