I’m looking forward to seeing him on the big screen.” The voice actor also portrayed Tails during a final scene for the original live-action film Sonic the Hedgehog, where the character was seen trying to locate Sonic.
In addition to O’Shaughnessey, the film will feature a number of other notable stars. Ben Schwartz is set to return as Sonic’s voice, Jim Carrey will star as Dr. Robotnik and Idris Elba will make their debut as Knuckles the Echidna.
Despite being voted the sexiest man in 2018, actor Luther and MCU said he would not try to make the echidna “sexy” during an interview that featured Knuckles earlier this year. “Conventionally, I can not say anything,” he said when asked. “But I would not say it was sexy. I do not think I will do that. That’s for sure.”
