This Is Only ‘Sonic The Hedgehog’ Movie Redesign You’ll Hate Looking At More Than The Original

Yikes! A Sonic the Hedgehog fan completely redesigned the film’s live-action take on the character so horribly, it actually makes Paramount’s initial design look good.

Sonic the Hedgehog was originally slated to arrive in theaters this fall. But after the Sonic film was hit with major backlash from fans for the design of Sonic in his live-action debut, director Jeff Fowler, announced that the project was being delayed in order to completely redesign the character. Ben Schwartz, who voices to the iconic blue hedgehog, also teased Sonic would get a redesign much closer to his classic video game form.

Some fans have already shared their own versions of how a game-accurate look for Sonic could appear on the silver screen. Some even said it only minutes to redesign the character. While many have improved the character’s look, one fan, in particular, managed to create the worst design yet. It’s so bad, it makes the original look good!

Wow. It’s hard to imagine creating a design such as this for SEGA’s most popular character. Fans might even prefer the original Paramount Pictures design over this nightmare.

But what do you think? Is this version of Sonic worse than Paramount’s original design? Sound off in the comments below!

Sonic the Hedgehog follows Sonic and Small-town sheriff Tom Wachowski on a road trip to San Francisco in a race to recover the blue hedgehog’s rings before the villainous Dr. Robotnik (Jim Carrey). Westworld actor James Marsden stars in the film along with Ben Schwartz who provides the voice for the film’s Sonic.

Here is the official synopsis for Sonic the Hedgehog: 

SONIC THE HEDGEHOG is a live-action adventure comedy based on the global blockbuster video game franchise from Sega that centres on the infamously brash bright blue hedgehog. The film follows the (mis)adventures of Sonic as he navigates the complexities of life on Earth with his newfound – human – best friend Tom Wachowski (James Marsden). Sonic and Tom join forces to try and stop the villainous Dr. Robotnik (Jim Carrey) from capturing Sonic and using his immense powers for world domination.

Directed by Jeff Fowler from a script written by Patrick Casey, Josh Miller, and Oren Uziel, Sonic the Hedgehog features the voice talent of Ben Schwartz as the titular character and stars James Marsden as sheriff Tom Wachowski, Jim Carrey as Dr. Ivo Robotnik, Neal McDonough as US Army Major Bennington, Tika Sumpter as Mrs. Wachowski, Lee Majdoub as Stone, and Frank C. Turner as Crazy Carl. Adam Pally, Natasha Rothwell, Debs Howard, and Elfina Luk also star in undisclosed roles.

Sonic the Hedgehog will be released in theaters on February 14, 2020.
