He attempts to foil a truck robbery by kicking the robbers out, but he ends up careening through the streets with little control. In Seattle, Sonic tries out being a superhero, calling himself “Blue Justice”. Moments later, Knuckles the echidna (Idris Elba) steps out of the portal and notices Robotnik holding Sonic’s (Ben Schwartz) quill, asking him where he got that. Stepping out are three warriors, who soon fall victim to Robotnik’s series of traps. He soon thinks he’s found the right way to get himself home, as he manages to create a ring portal to another world. In his time trying to find a way back to Earth, he has attempted to make mushroom coffee and has failed miserably. Robotnik/”Eggman” (Jim Carrey) has been stranded for a while. ![]() It won't follow how he is introduced in the games, but hey, there isn't a police officer Sonic affectionately nicknames Donut Lord in the first Sonic game either, so I'm sure it'll be okay.The film opens on the Mushroom Planet, where Dr. Since Shadow has already been confirmed for the Sonic Cinematic Universe's future (we can call it that now, a producer said so) then he can take the place of Robotnik as its primary antagonist. Recasting him would be one option, but probably not a popular one - especially since the producers have said they won't consider it. There are conflicting reports regarding whether Jim Carrey will return to the role of Robotnik for Sonic 3. Here's where things may get a little confusing. On the other hand, all of that may have already happened and Shadow was simply captured and returned to the lab, only to be released by Robotnik who has presumably survived and is on his way to the lab to do just that. While a key part of Shadow becoming Shadow, it's certainly an understandable decision when you consider the movies' target audience. Since Shadow is still in a lab, it may mean the whole 'watching his best friend die' element of his backstory may be left on the cutting room floor. There are a lot of directions Paramount could go from here. He loses his memories during all of this and eventually sides with Robotnik to help take down Sonic and take over the world. Shadow sees his best friend die and turns even darker than he was already. Maria, who forms a bond with Shadow, attempts to help the hedgehog escape but is killed in the process. Gerald quickly realizes Shadow is more of a danger than a help and instead decides to lock him away in his lab, protecting humanity in the process. Shadow was created by Grandad Robotnik to save his granddaughter, and Dr. ![]() Since Shadow's big screen reveal was also in a lab, and one that has been around for half a century, it seems likely the movies will be borrowing from game Shadow's origin story pretty heavily. The dark hedgehog's first appearance in a Sonic game was Sonic Adventure 2, but it wasn't until he got a game of his own a few years later that his tragic backstory was fully realized. While not quite as instantly recognizable as Tails and Knuckles, Shadow was definitely the next most logical character from the Sonic universe to introduce. ![]()
