The first trailer for the Sonic spinoff series focusing on Knuckles that no one asked for is here, and it actually looks kind of cute and badass.
What if Knuckles (voiced by the mighty Idris Elba) was Sonic’s housemate? What if Knuckles also had a dumb human friend he wanted to train as an Echidna warrior? If those questions sound enticing to you, you’re in luck. The Knuckles series looks exactly as silly and outdated-ish as the two (very successful) Sonic the Hedgehog flicks that Paramount has put out so far, but maybe that’s what we need right now.
The first-ever trailer for the Paramount+ series is actually quite generous, and introduces us to Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles’ post-Sonic 2 day-to-day, meaning this spinoff show will most likely tie directly into the third movie, which comes out this Christmas and will break the Internet with live-action Shadow and probably also the child who gets shot and sends Shadow on a warpath.
