Description: Knuckles the Echidna is red echidna with a white crescent symbol on his chest from the Sonic the Hedgehog series. Both physically powerful and highly resilient, Knuckles is the last guardian of the Master Emerald, a powerful ancient relic which is his solemn duty to protect from anyone who wants to steal it. For a long time, he was thought to be the last of the echidna race, until the Nocturnus Clan was revealed to still be active. Knuckles' name is derived from his four knuckles—two on each hand—which are actually sharp spikes. According to official Sonic Team polls, Knuckles is the fourth most popular character in the series, behind Tails, Shadow, and Sonic. His first game appearance was in Sonic the Hedgehog 3, released on February 2, 1994 for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis. He was described as being 15 years old when he made his debut, but since Sonic Adventure, he is now given the age of 16. In the game Sonic and the Black Knight, in the second part of Sir Gawain's bio, it states that Knuckles the Echidna's age is 18. Knuckles has two spikes on each hand, and his dominant trait is his superhuman strength and that can be used to dig. He can also glide by trapping air under his dreadlocks, can climb up walls with ease, and is very skilled at a wide variety of martial art forms. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is an upcoming adventure film based on the video game franchise Sonic the Hedgehog published by Sega. It is the sequel to Sonic the Hedgehog (2020), with Jeff Fowler directing from a script written by Pat Casey, Josh Miller, and John Whittington, based on the story created by Casey and Miller. The cast includes Ben Schwartz, Colleen O'Shaughnessey, Idris Elba, James Marsden, Tika Sumpter, Natasha Rothwell, Adam Pally, Shemar Moore, and Jim Carrey. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 follows Sonic and Tails as they try to prevent Doctor Eggman and Knuckles the Echidna from finding the Master Emerald. Following the success of the first film, and with plans for a film series, Paramount Pictures announced the sequel in May 2020. Filming took place from March to June 2021 in Vancouver and Hawaii. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is scheduled for theatrical release in the United States on April 8, 2022, by Paramount Pictures in association with Sega Sammy Group. In February 2022, Sega and Paramount confirmed that a third film, alongside a Knuckles spin-off series, are in development. The Knuckles spin-off would feature Elba reprising his role, releasing in 2023 on Paramount's streaming service, Paramount+. Knuckles Paramount+ Series Casts Christopher Lloyd, Cary Elwes, and More The Knuckles Paramount+ series has cast several new actors, including Christopher Lloyd, Paul Scheer, Cary Elwes, Stockard Channing, and Rob Huebel. According to reporting from Deadline, "character details are being kept under wraps," so it's currently unclear if they will be doing voice work for characters from the Sonic the Hedgehog universe, or if they will be appearing as human characters. The series will see Idris Elba reprising his role from Sonic the Hedgehog 2, while Adam Pally and Tika Sumpter will also be returning as their characters from the Paramount films. Knuckles does not currently have a release date, but the streaming series is expected to arrive ahead of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, which is currently slated to release on December 20, 2024. In the series, Knuckles will be training Wade Whipple (Pally) in "the ways of the Echidna warrior." The deputy of Green Hills, Wade has been portrayed as good-natured but bumbling, and he could probably use a bit more training! Little else is known about the series at this time. Knuckles first appeared in the Sega Genesis video game Sonic the Hedgehog 3, which released in 1994. In that game, Knuckles starts out as an antagonist, before becoming friends with Sonic. A similar situation played out in the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 movie, in which Doctor Robotnik tricked Knuckles into a rivalry with the blue blur. By the end of the film, Knuckles became friends with Sonic and Tails, though it seems he still has quite a bit to learn about Earth. Over the years, Sega has introduced a number of Sonic characters, and it would be difficult to feature all of them in the live-action movies. The Knuckles streaming series could be the perfect place to introduce additional characters, such as the Chaotix. Whether any of today's newly announced cast members will be voicing members of the Sonic family remains to be seen, but hopefully Paramount will have much more to reveal soon!
