In almost exactly one year's time, Sonic the Hedgehog 4, the fourth film in the series, will premiere and this time we will be introduced to the two Sonic CD characters Amy Rose and Metal Sonic. We recently revealed that the former will be played by Kristen Bell, but we don't yet know who will play the latter yet.
Considering the heavyweights starring in the other roles, there is a strong case to be made that this will also be a big name. However, we probably won't have to wait too long to find out, as it has now been announced via Instagram that filming is well underway, complete with a picture of director Jeff Fowler holding Amy's iconic mallet.
The premiere is set for March 19, 2027, and then we'll find out if the Sonic movies can continue the extremely unusual trend of getting better and better with each new sequel.
