Everyone`s favorite super-fast blue hedgehog makes his big screen debut next year, with the release of the Sonic the Hedgehog movie. The first poster has now been released, and it hints at a slightly different look for Sonic.It`s a motion poster, which shows several bolts of blue light zooming across the screen, before it forms a partial silhouette of Sonic. He`s instantly recognisable of course, but there`s a few differences worth noting, presumably because in the movie he`ll have to interactive with human actors. His limbs are definitely a bit more humanoid, with noticeably muscular legs. He`s also wearing realistic sneakers, rather than the more cartoonish type we`re used to seeing him (they`re the right color at least).
