'Knuckles' Punches Out One More Sneak Peek Before Premiere

 


By the time you’re reading this, the 6-episode Knuckles series bridging the second and third Sonic the Hedgehog movies is most certainly out. But that didn’t stop Paramount+ from releasing its most action-packed sneak peek yet just two days before.

As previously reported, estranged Robotnik associate The Buyer is in pursuit of Knuckles’s quills for their power. He's brought his mech as they meet for the first time right outside the bowling alley. The mech arms grab Knuckles utterly thrashing the echidna around, destroying the parked cars in the area. It is a very brief clip of about 45 seconds.

The event series stars Idris Elba as Knuckles as he mentors Adam Pally’s Wade Whipple in the ways of the echidna warrior. However, while this is a spinoff, the series does not shoo away the fact that Knuckles now lives with the Wachowskis, leading to appearances from Sonic (voiced by Ben Schwartz), Tails (Colleen O’Shaughnessey), and Maddie (Tika Sumpter).

The cast also includes Cary Elwes as Wade’s dad "Pistol" Pete Whipple, as well as Stockard Channing as Wade’s mother Wendy, Edi Patterson as his sister Wanda, Kid Cudi as Agent Mason, Ellie Taylor as Agent Willoughby, Julian Barratt as Jack Sinclair (whoever that is), and Christopher Lloyd purportedly as PachacamacPaul Scheer and Rob Huebel will be playing anchors for ESPN 8: The Ocho. Jeff Fowler, director of both films so far, directs the pilot and serves as an executive producer. John Whittington, who worked on the screenplay for the second film, is credited as co-creator with showrunner Toby Ascher, from Original Film who also executive produces.  Paramount Pictures and Sega of America produce as they do the film. Watch the clip below.
