Sonic the Hedgehog 4 title and cast revealed ahead of 2027 release

Paramount Pictures and Sega revealed the film's final title: Sonic the Hedgehog 4. A new teaser spotlights Amy Rose and her signature hammer, even giving the title a pink "4," and the sequel is set to open March 19, 2027. The returning cast includes Jim Carrey as Dr.

Robotnik, Ben Schwartz as Sonic, Colleen O'Shaughnessey as Tails, Idris Elba as Knuckles, Keanu Reeves as Shadow, James Marsden as Tom Wachowski, Tika Sumpter as Maddie Wachowski, and Lee Majdoub as Agent Stone. Kristen Bell was previously announced to join as Amy Rose, and director Jeff Fowler returns for his fourth film in the chair.

New additions in undisclosed roles are Ben Kingsley, Matt Berry, Nick Offerman, and Richard Ayoade. The teaser offers few plot details beyond familiar elements — anthropomorphic alien animals, Chaos Emeralds, and high-speed action — and echoes the previous film's teases of Amy Rose and Metal Sonic.
