Sonic The Hedgehog 3’s end credits scene has leaked online

Posted on by Amelia Pressman

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 doesn’t hit theaters until December 20th, but spoilers have already leaked online, including for the end credits scene that introduces a fourth film.

As Kotaku reports, smartphone footage of the end credits scene in particular has appeared on social media sites such as X/Twitter, YouTube and TikTok.

Fans looking forward to Sonic 3 – which will introduce Shadow the Hedgehog as a new villain, played by Matrix star Keanu Reeves – should therefore take steps to avoid spoilers in the coming days.

The end credits scene is particularly valuable as it introduces the big new addition to the fourth Sonic the Hedgehog film, following the introduction of Knuckles in the second film and Shadow the Hedgehog in the third film.

“It’s fun to watch the fan debates online about who’s next and who’s going to be teased at the end of the film,” director Jeff Fowler said in November. “We have a lot of the same conversations. We all have our favorites on the filmmaking side and we all make good arguments that it should be this or that.” It’s fun to keep that anticipation going. This film is no different when it comes to teasing new characters.

Of course, fans can find out as planned when Sonic 3 hits theaters later this week. “Sonic, Knuckles and Tails reunite against a powerful new foe, Shadow, a mysterious villain with powers they have never faced before,” the synopsis reads.

“With their abilities inferior in every way, Team Sonic must find an unlikely alliance in the hopes of stopping Shadow and protecting the planet.”
