Blockbuster Blue Blur: Sonic Races to Second Spot
Feb 20,2025Author: Thomas
Sonic the Hedgehog 3's box office triumph continues, securing its position as the second highest-grossing video game movie adaptation in North American history.
The film, featuring Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog, has surpassed $204 million in domestic revenue after its fourth weekend, adding $11 million from 3,582 theaters. Globally, the film boasts an impressive $384.8 million.
While Sonic 3 has outperformed its predecessor, Sonic 2, domestically, it remains significantly behind the reigning champion: The Super Mario Bros. Movie. The Mario film's staggering domestic gross of $574,934,330 and global total of $1,359,146,628 set a benchmark that may be difficult to surpass for future video game adaptations, though upcoming films like the Minecraft movie and the Super Mario Bros. sequel could pose a challenge.
Despite this considerable gap, the success of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is undeniable. Paramount Pictures, already celebrating the film's success, has greenlit Sonic 4.
Other notable video game movie adaptations include 2022's Uncharted, which earned $148,648,820 domestically (placing fourth), and the original Sonic the Hedgehog movie, which sits in fifth place with $146,066,470.
