The film opens in theaters on April 8, making May 24 the first day the film is eligible to appear on streaming platforms after a 45-day theatrical exclusivity period. The film was a huge success in early theatrical releases, winning the biggest opening weekend of any video game movie.
The popularity of these two Sonic films has seen Sega double down on the franchise. We already knew a third Sonic movie was on the way, and a Knuckles spinoff series led by Idris Elba was in development for Paramount Plus.
