Sonic Movie

The Sonic the Hedgehog film controversy added a new page to its story overnight, as it looks like two news images that claim to be the blue hedgehog's new design for the movie have surfaced online. If proven to be true, it looks like fans of the franchise will be able to sleep much more easily ahead of its date with the cinema on Valentines Day.

As you can see, these pictures capture the cartoony look of Sonic a lot better than the original trailer did. Even the white gloves are back! It's not an exact replica of the classic SEGA character, but it's a whole lot better than what was originally pitched. Apparently, the two images were leaked by a person whose friend works at Paramount Studios. It sounds a little bit too much like another "my uncle works at Sony" situation, but at least we have some visual proof to work with.

Still, if you do miss the original design, you could always get a mask to commemorate the infamous look. What do you think of this design? Do you hope it's the final version? Speed into the comments below.
