Sonic the Hedgehog is speeding over to Netflix. The blue blur is ge꧙t😼ting his own 3D animated series on the streaming service and it's set to arrive in 2022.

As revealedꦿ by Netflix on ﷽Twitter, Sonic’s animated series will go by the name “Sonic Prime.”

The Sonic series will be produced by WildBrain, whose WildBrain Studios offshoot has had previous history in terms of video game adaptation with a Mega Man series. Also on the development side is the entertainment group Man of Action. It has worked on big names in the past, too. Disney and Marvel characters have fallen under their purview, with 2012’s Ultimate♓ Spider-Man being it🦩s biggest household name.

Ironically, we already had an inkling this announcement was coming – because the Sonic Netflix series had previously sped out of the blocks too quickly. In late 2020, a澳洲幸运5ও开奖号码历史查询:n initial announcement on Sonic Prime was swiftly deleted and, until now, there was ඣa telling radio silence on the project.

For the avoidance of doubt, this is unlikely to have any relation to the fledgling Sonic movie series. On the movie side, the Sonic sequel (with Ben Schwartz voicing Sonic) is 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:likely to get rolling this March with a view to a release on April 8, 2022.

So, 2022 is gearing up to be a fantastic year for Sonic fans. A new movie, a new seriꩵes. Could a new game be just around the corner too?
