[@EdenLovesDragonsForSomeReason]

We knew about it for ages man

[@SonicTheBlueBlur15]

Weeeee wooooon

[@lavender9844]

I know, but we’ve never seen it as clean as in that promo animation!

[@CMJ06]

It's not just me who got excited when I saw him doing that 😂

[@Omar-fx7bn]

I know it was cool!

[@MasonParkinson]

HE DID THE GLIDE, IM CRYINGGG 😭😭

[@BestInSLS]

WOW

[@Blueywh]

That made me laugh 😊

[@nicksren]

Like if Idris Elba in a beanie the same color as Knuckles made you chuckle

[@EdenLovesDragonsForSomeReason]

He’s wearing the Among Us beanie

[@Trainboy452]

Unlike Sonic, I don't chuckle!

[@THECHRISAL3X]

Unlike Sonic. Rather flex my muscles.

[@liamn.watson4867]

Or made you flex your muscles.

[@Qornbred]

Unlike Sonic I don’t chuckle

[@krististarosta6736]

Kid Cudi must’ve been so excited to be part of a Sonic series! Considering he’s a fan of the Sonic franchise.

[@SonicTheBlueBlur15]

Thats a big w for him

[@caitlinkolick3981]

Definitely a dream come true. 🌟⭐👊

[@patricklarsen182]

All the actors (Marsden, Sumpter, etc) say they all have a lot of fun in these projects

[@rockinstampede]

0:37 Kid Cudi - “I don’t play many bad guys” Me: immediately remembers his Brooklyn Nine Nine appearance

[@PayForViewsJST]

That was him he's the toothpaste guy?

[@user-rj3iz8jg1k]

Unlike Sonic..I don't chuckle!

[@isimioyekunlemarktaiwo3643]

It seems someone doesnt know what the meaning of "many" is.

[@user-rj3iz8jg1k]

Glitchy bug.

[@ahmad55]

That’s what Kid Cudi looks like..,I thought he’d be more muscular

[@cauansouza1001]

Knuckles can glide, he can glide in the sky, I loved that reference FINALLY!!

[@pricemoore2022]

I can't wait to see Knuckles on Paramount+!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@AndrewRobbins3344]

[@tk32502]

[@YeseniaTheHedgehog]

Same here 😊

[@mylesworthy08]

Same for me

[@user-cq5kn7tc7g]

Me as well

[@williampulfer-melville8536]

0:21 weirdly Knuckles usually allows Sonic to call him Knucks

[@Urd-Vidan]

Don't think Sonic even ask permission if its okay to call him Knucks, he just calls him Knucks. Wade at least ask, thus gets rejected.

[@shelbystrogen3128]

Wade and Wanda's mother, Wendy Whipple, is Rizzo from Grease and Pistol Pete Whipple is Westley from The Princess Bride.

[@JorgeGomez-hx5uu]

also Dr Gorden from Saw

[@gabagaba761]

What’s that?

[@MarioMan2010]

Inconceivable!

[@StudioInkblot]

Excuse you, that's the First Lady

[@patricklarsen182]

Way ahead of you on that ✌️

[@Reyna_Amaturi]

Besides Knuckles who is my favorite sonic movie character, at the moment, I think my favorite human character will be Wade’s mom because she seems like a fun warming character ☺️😂

[@SonicTheBlueBlur15]

Fr

[@Pan-cackes]

Can't wait to see Wade and Wanda fight like Tom and Jerry 🤣🤣 Also, poor Maddie, she must take care Tails, Sonic and Knux in the same time 🤣🤣

[@DevinRosa]

And after Sonic 3 probably gonna include Shadow

[@Pan-cackes]

How God, another hedgehog in the house 😂😂

[@Toysonicandfriends2]

1:48 wait he glide he gilded he can finally glided

[@lorenzopaschoalpossatti6192]

1:38 Knuckles, stop stealing my grapes!

[@multiplefan682]

Imagine if he stole his chicken.

[@xavierrobinson8810]

I figured that Knuckles would be watching over the master emerald.

[@tk32502]

I’m sure will see it in sonic movie 3

[@MacUser2-il2cx]

Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles made a sacred pact with their fist bump to protect and watch over it together.

[@MariktheGunslinger]

That'd be a fun series, Knuckles just sitting and watching the Emerald for six episodes.

[@tailsfan10]

I'm betting they have it in a safe somewhere in the house

[@xavierrobinson8810]

@@tailsfan10 Inside the cooler.

[@sketchycat6223]

Idris really seems to have fun voicing Knuckles :)

[@tailsfan10]

Seeing members of Wade's family is a great expansion to a unique side character

[@akshayanalfredstudios196]

0:41 Mason: Do I look like I need your power? Like Knuckles says it in Sonic 2. ❤

[@brandonharristsw7516]

I can still sound like him

[@RCCrawlerz209]

Carie flippin' Elwes!!! It's been eons since i've seen that guy act in anything...WOW!!!

[@a.jthomas6132]

I wonder if Knuckles get to learned more about his people the Echidnas. Maybe see Tikal along the way.

[@mariosonicaaron9247]

same

[@juanrisa945]

Pachacamac is showing up. Voiced by Christopher Lloyd.

[@AnnCatsanndra]

Can y'all please just like. Put this on a DVD or something so I can buy it the one time instead of paying for yet another subscription that I'm gonna have to cancel immediately anyway?

[@patricklarsen182]

I’m going to finish it before my paramount trial ends

[@RidiculousThoughts]

Cary Elwes, Stockard (freaking) Channing, and Kid Cudi?! Okay, sign me up!

[@spongemaster]

Don't forget Rory "The Hound" McCann

[@TopherCadence]

“KNUCKLES. STOP STEALING MY GRAPES” I can’t believe they did that 😂

[@Leo-pd4fc]

Idris Elba is so best Knuckles's voice! Echidna forever!!! 😊❤

Idris Elba is such a great voice for Knuckles in the Sonic the Hedgehog Movies! I can't wait to see him in his upcoming show.🤩

[@whimsicalhamster88]

Stockard Channing!? Love it!

[@thecalvinistkat]

Knuckles needs to learn to share

[@MrPrimeFusionX]

That goal sign prop is LIT🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@sergioandrescontreras5251]

I am so excited to seeing this show. Also I know this is unrelated but can you imagine if Knuckles had to train Baymax from Big Hero 6 to be a warrior? It would frustrate Knuckles to the point of punching him.

[@JoaoGabriel-uo5hv]

Knuckles cowboy 🤠🔥🦔❤

[@ejunadia4278]

Cary Elwes / Dr. Lawrence Gordon with Knuckles will surely make things interesting here!

[@dariojovicic9346]

that is the cop from Sonic first movie when all phones start to ring, am happy he geth more chances

[@zackopgamer13]

im just happy they decided to add the video game sound effect in the sign post at 0:06 10/10 FROM ME XDDD

[@Blueywh]

Idris elba dont let me down😊

[@willb.5225]

Only complaint? Not enough Tails. Super hyped for this

[@CoolMan1_SonicAndOtherStuff]

This looks like a blast!

[@4zehorde]

This better get a blu-ray release

[@user-nq6du5he2c]

Knuckles look awesome

[@goolus]

oh yeah

[@danshotguns4226]

Rory mccann ... His character references being attacked by 2 people and the injury that he shows them is a clear call back to his injury from Game of Thrones where the guy bit him on the neck.It's in the exact same spot.. It can't just be a coincidence..

[@Kamilygabes.07]

I LOVED IT 1:38

[@innervision97]

Idris is literally a Muay Thai kickboxer, he's perfect to play Knuckles!

[@SuperSonicPals-YT]

TILL EXCITED FOR KNUCKLES ❤❤❤❤❤

[@kick4243]

KNUCKLES HAS HIS HAT!!!

[@lmtnemesisgamer3707]

Ellie Taylor, one of my favourite comedians. Love her on Mock the Week.

[@caitlinkolick3981]

This is gonna be insane. Not to mention the world building around the sonic cinema verse. New characters, old faces and even newer places!!!!

[@tonymata8070]

Cary Elwes?! Inconceivable!!

[@brandonharristsw7516]

Oh yeah

[@joshuak8982]

I never thought the guy that featured in through the late night almost a decade ago would be playing a villain against one of the heros I grew up watching on Saturday morning

[@LordVerkins]

Nice Knuckles is getting his own show.

[@tuckerl987o6]

I know Cary Elwes as Despereaux from Psych. Such a good actor

[@duoandaone3223]

The glide, the spinning knuckles board. YES LORDD

Rizzo is in this, I wonder if the other Pink Ladies will show up

0:35 heeeeeey. KID CUDI!!!!!!! 😁**hugs**

[@ryanreeves4481]

I’m so excited to see the knuckles show on paramount+ next Friday

This is going to be an exciting prelude to Sonic 3! I even bought a Knuckles plush from the Build-A-Bear website!

[@victorhernandez8723]

Cary Elwes is in this mini-series? I definitely need to watch it!

[@RCCrawlerz209]

Been too long since I've seen him in anything!! lol

[@aaronsarchive82]

HE GLIDES!!!!!!!! 😱😱😱

[@peacockqueen]

I love how during these interviews, the actors treat the Sonic characters as if they were alive

[@florianhoxha2888]

I wonder if Shadow the Hedgehog has his own animated series with the help of Sega, Sonic Team, Warner Bros or Dreamworks Animated. Jason Griffin would voice him.

[@ernestosibbley3238]

Nice looks like fun can't wait to go see it we are getting close.

[@Kbrathwaite621]

Next Friday!🤩

[@Stefan-jb9hq]

Oh nice , an actors and some cuts of scenes.
