New look at Shadow in the third Sonic movie!

So, this just dropped out of nowhere today. Here's hoping the third film lives up to the hype. From what's shown in this image, the design seems to capture the SA2 look very well.![[Image: GAHDWYDa8AAP9lA.jpg]](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GAHDWYDa8AAP9lA.jpg)

Yes he does, hahaha! He loves Shadow and Metal Sonic. As far as this movie goes, I hope there's elements of Sonic Adventure 2 in it but I know it probably won't. -

Well, you never know. The Mario Movie might just have changed everything for video game movies. That movie stuck very close to the source material, and ended up a massive success, so hopefully, what Paramount takes away from that is, people like it when you stick to the source material.
Good news is, (if I remember correctly) the writers for the film said they played Sonic Adventure 2 in preparation for writing the film, so SA2 content isn't completely off the table. I'd also expect to see some references to the Shadow the Hedgehog game, because both Jeff Fowler (the director of the film), and Tim Miller (the executive producer of the film) both actually worked on the CGI cutscenes in that, and have expressed interest in bringing the thing full circle by adapting the game. -

I heard jim carrey wasn't going to be in the third movie is this true? Or just that he isn't confirmed to be in the role again? -

It's just that he hasn't been confirmed.
See, the the reason the second film doesn't give Robotnik a concrete fate is because Jim Carrey has expressed interest in retirement, and Paramount obviously won't want anyone else playing Robotnik in the films (the difference would be too jarring). So, if Carrey is on board with returning, they can just say "Robotnik survived". And if he chooses to retire, they can just say "Robotnik died". Like BDB said, Only time will tell.
Now, in 4 days, the annual "The Game Awards" stream will be air. Given the second Sonic Movie got a trailer at the 2021 Game Awards, I wouldn't be surprised if the Paramount Knuckles TV series gets one (especially considering it's coming out early next year, and we've seen nothing). So it's possible we'll get an explanation of Robotnik's fate there. It seems too early for a full Sonic Movie 3 trailer, but I wouldn't be surprised if they have a short teaser clip prepared. -

Oh very very interesting. If they played SA2 and did Shadow cutscenes, I wouldn't count out some aspects of SA2 being in the movie. I never did play Shadow all the way through though, did it have a decent story? I remember it had many branching paths but there had to be one primary one, right?

Hmmm I think that was smart of them but I personally hope he is returning for at least one more time. He really made Robotnik shine. Looking forward to the trailer for Knuckles. -
