Idris intends to make a "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" spin-off series. The title has been discussed with Keanu as "Shat and Knuckles"

The game-adapted movie "Sonic the Hedgehog 3" released by Paramount Pictures will be released in the United States on December 20, 2024, in which Keanu Reeves' new character Shat will make his debut.

Idris Elba, who plays Knuckles in the "Sonic the Hedgehog" movie series, recently revealed in an interview with foreign media "ComicBook" that he has been discussing with Keanu to produce a spin-off series about Knuckles and Shat.

Idris Elba said: "I'm telling you... while it could have been clever to combine the two characters into a unique title like 'Shadow Knuckles,' Reeves quickly suggested, 'No, Knuckles and Shadow.' 'Shadow Knuckles' sounds like a band."

After the release of "Sonic the Hedgehog 2", the official also launched the spin-off "Knuckles" starring Idris Elba this year, so some viewers want to know whether Idris will participate in the filming of "Knuckles" Season 2 and "Sonic the Hedgehog 4". And Idris joked: "Wow, there is "Sonic the Hedgehog 4"? Man, you know more than me. I would say I am happy to shoot. There is a chance to get to know the character more deeply in different episodes... If (the film producer) is involved, I will be very excited."
