'Sonic the Hedgehog 3' Confirms Christmas 2024 Release Date

Los Angeles, August 9 - Paramount Pictures has had great success with its video game adaptation Sonic films, and now, the studio is gearing up for another film in the series. ## Paramount announced the third installment of Sonic in February this year, much before the release of Sonic the Hedgehog 2. The studio has now confirmed its release date as the iconic blue speedster will be hitting theaters on December 20, 2024. ## The first two Sonic films grossed over $720 million worldwide, which is massive for the film franchise as movies adapted from video games tend to bomb at the box office. 2020s Sonic the Hedgehog grossed over $319 million worldwide while its sequel which came out in April of this year went on to gross over 402 million. ## Sonic the Hedgehog 2 opened to a huge $72.1 million in a major boost for the domestic (North American) box office recovery. It scored the biggest opening weekend of all time for a video game adaptation, beating the first Sonic, and was also Paramount's biggest three-day opening since 2014.## Sonic 3, meanwhile, will have tough competition at the box office as James Cameron's mega movie, Avatar 3, will also be hitting theaters around the same time. The cast of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 includes James Marsden, Ben Schwartz, Tika Sumpter, Natasha Rothwell, Adam Pally, Shemar Moore, Colleen O'Shaughnessey, Lee Majdoub, and Idris Elba.## Running faster, flying higher, and punching harder. #SonicMovie3 hits theatres on December 20, 2024. pic.twitter.com/DcFGbaKUao— Sonic the Hedgehog (@SonicMovie) August 9, 2022 ## Stay tuned...

A Sequel To 'Clifford The Big Red Dog' Is In The Works At Paramount Pictures

Los Angeles, November 24 - A sequel to 2021's family-friendly adventure "Clifford the Big Red Dog" is in development at the Paramount Pictures studio. The first film was released simultaneously theatrically and digitally on Paramount+ on November 10, 2021.## It has generated a little over $34 million at the North American box office. Though the company didn't provide any tangible metrics, Paramount says "Clifford the Big Red Dog" has become the nascent streaming service's most-watched original film to date. ## It should be noted that Paramount Plus rebranded from CBS All Access last March with limited cinematic offerings, so "Clifford" didn't have much competition to cement its place as the streamer's most popular new film.## According to Variety, the studio has not disclosed whether the 2nd installment will play only in theaters or simultaneously on digital platforms, like the original one. ## Based on the popular children's book series, "Clifford the Big Red Dog" follows 12-year-old Emily Elizabeth, who is gifted a little red puppy. Much to her surprise, she wakes up to find the petite canine has grown overnight into a giant, 10-foot hound.## It is directed by Walt Becker from a script by Jay Scherick, David Ronn, and Blaise Hemingway. The film was made in association with Scholastic Entertainment and eOne, the latter of which distributed "Clifford" in Canada and the UK.## Stay tuned...
