Keanu talked about embracing his darker side as the film's antagonist while portraying Shadow.
He stated, “Taking on the role of Shadow in ‘Sonic the Hedgehog 3’ has been uniquely significant for me. I interpreted the script as a depiction of his internal conflict, and I felt a sense of pity for him. He has experienced the loss of the one person he truly loved and has spent 50 years in suspended animation.”

In the forthcoming film, Sonic, Knuckles, and Tails unite against a formidable new foe, Shadow, a mysterious villain with capabilities unlike any they have encountered before. With their skills overshadowed in every aspect, Team Sonic must forge an unexpected alliance to thwart Shadow and safeguard the planet.
Previously, Idris Elba, who lends his voice to Knuckles in the upcoming 'Sonic the Hedgehog 3', mentioned that he has finally mastered the pronunciation of 'Echidna' in the film.
He expressed, “It’s wonderful to be back in Knuckles’ iconic fists. He’s a fantastic character, and I enjoy portraying him. Other actors may take on Knuckles in the future, but for now, it’s my role, and I cherish it because he is such an iconic figure.”
Brimming with high-stakes challenges, rapid-fire excitement, and the legendary trio confronting their greatest ordeal yet, 'Sonic the Hedgehog 3' is poised to deliver an unparalleled blockbuster adventure.
The film is scheduled to premiere in theaters on January 3, 2025, in both 2D and 4Dx.
