According to a new report from noted insider MyTimeToShine suggests that a Shadow spin-off is currently in development at Paramount. No official word on whether or not the project would be a television show (like the Knuckles series that aired on Paramount+), or a full-fledged movie was mentioned at this time.
Shadow was first introduced in 2024’s Sonic the Hedgehog 3. He was played by Keanu Reeves, and toward the end of the film, he attempted to sacrifice himself alongside Dr. Ivo Robotnik in an attempt to save Earth from a cannon. However, the final scene of the film shows Shadow survived.
“Sonic, Knuckles, and Tails reunite against a powerful new adversary, Shadow, a mysterious villain with powers unlike anything they have faced before,” the synopsis for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 reads. “With their abilities outmatched in every way, Team Sonic must seek out an unlikely alliance in hopes of stopping Shadow and protecting the planet.”
