The tease also reveals that the next movie in the franchise is back filming after it was put on hold during theSAG-AFTRA strikes. Returning in the new movie are Ben Schwartz as Sonic, Colleen O’Shaughnessey as Tails, and Idris Elba as Knuckles. On the human side, James Marsden will be back as Tom Wachowski alongside Tika Sumpter, Natasha Rothwell, and Shemar Moore. It will be directed by Jeff Fowler and written by Pat Casey, Josh Miller, and John Whittington.
