  • Filming For Knuckles Show Officially Underway, With Jeffrey Fowler Directing

    Featuring returning characters from the Sonic movies.

    If you’ve been wondering what’s going on with that Knuckles show for Paramount+, wonder no more: Sonic Movie director Jeffrey Fowler has confirmed via his Twitter account that filming of the show is officially underway, with him in the director’s seat for the pilot. Whether this marks the official first day of shooting, or if this is just the first day he can talk about it, is currently unknown. The Knuckles series is supposed to debut later this year.

    Interestingly, Knuckles’ iconic Sonic OVA hat is in the photo, meaning it is almost certainly going to be worn by him in the series. According to Variety, the series will see Knuckles “agreeing to train Wade as his protege and teach him the ways of the echidna warrior.” Adam Pally (Wade Wipple) will star alongside Idris Elba, who will be reprising his role as Knuckles.

    Edi Patterson, Julian Barratt, Scott Mescudi, and Ellie Taylor will features as recurring actors while Tika Sumpter (Maddie Wachowski) will guest star along with Rory McCann. James Marsden (Tom Wachowski) is not currently listed as a returning actor, so it seems like outside of Wade and Knuckles, the series will focus on a newly introduced cast. Additional casting is expected to be announced at a later date.

    The series pilot is currently filming in London using a script from Sonic 2 screenplay writer John Whittington, and will serve as head writer. Brian Schacter and James Madejski have also been confirmed for the writing team.

    We’re likely to hear more about the Knuckles series in the coming months, so stay tuned! It’s supposed to release some time this year.

    If the rumors of the show being delayed to early 2024 are true, I assume maybe it will be finally shown at the Game Awards. They did show the Sonic 2 trailer there back in 2021.

    It was quite a treat seeing the Sonic 2 trailer at the Game Awards!

    Good news! The strike is officially over! Now, the actors can start promoting the show. Maybe, the marketing will start this month since it is supposed to be released this Holiday?

    So, it's look like the Knuckles show is quietly delayed according to an recent article about Paul Scheer who is one of the actors appearing in the show.:

    https://deadline.com/2023/11/paul-scheer-signs-sugar23-1235615636/

    EXCLUSIVE: Comedic multi-hyphenate Paul Scheer has signed with Sugar23 for management.

    An actor, comedian, writer, director and podcast host, Scheer will next be seen in McG’s film Family Switch starring Jennifer Garner and Ed Helms, which debuts on Netflix November 30th. He’ll then appear in Paramount+’s miniseries Knuckles, based on the Sonic the Hedgehog video game franchise from Sega, which is out early next year.

    It is likely it was delayed because of the strike since the actors were unable to promote it. Since, the strike is now over, they can start promoting it. I guess we will get our first look of the show at the Game Awards.

    Also, I found some crew members working on the show.:

    Also, Tika Sumpter give an update on both Knuckles and Sonic 3. She said that we will be getting news about both of these very soon.

    I think the info is coming very soon. But you are going to be extremely happy. I think there's a lot coming, so just you wait. That's all I got for you. They'll fire me! [Laughs]

    Also, since, Knuckles' birthday is coming next week which is on this Friday (February 2nd), it will be a perfect marketing opportunity for Paramount to drop the trailer on that day or they could show a picture or a poster and announced that the trailer will be shown during the Super Bowl which is a few weeks from now.

    Yeah, it is.

    What I said that they could possibly drop the trailer on his birthday or they could released a picture or a poster for the show and announced that trailer will be shown during the Super Bowl. We will have to wait to see if either of these possibilities are true.

    So, it's look like Junkie XL will return to make some music for the Knuckles show.:

    https://soundtracktracklist.com/release/knuckles-soundtrack/

    Also, Paramount will promote the show at this event called The Lodge which will start in Colorado on Knuckles' birthday!

    On the heels of a successful debut tour in 2023, Paramount+’s The Lodge will return this year with double the stops to immerse fans in their favorite movies and shows, in collaboration with Alterra Mountain Company. Activations will spotlight new and highly-anticipated  titles such as KNUCKLES, HALO, FRASIER, LAWMEN: BASS REEVES, DORA, MEAN GIRLS (2024) and BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE, while celebrating fan-favorite franchises like SURVIVOR, SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS and STAR TREK: DISCOVERY.

    In addition to the Nickelodeon and Paramount Presents activations, each rendition of The Lodge will offer a varying display of experiential title elements to bring the Paramount Mountain to life. Attendees will be able to take a seat in the iconic Captain’s Chair from STAR TREK: DISCOVERY, play a game of bowling within the KNUCKLES universe and saddle up to see if they have what it takes to join LAWMEN: BASS REEVES and earn a Paramount+ marshal badge during a timed lasso roping game.

     

    These are the dates and places where the event will take place.:

    Paramount+’s The Lodge will stop in several states across the country this year, including pop ups at SXSW in Austin, TX and San Diego Comic-Con. The full tour schedule is as follows:

     

    February 2 – 4: Winter Park Resort, CO

    February 16 – 19: Stratton, VT

    March 8 – 11: SXSW – Austin, TX

    March 22 – 24: Steamboat, CO

    March 29 – 31: Palisades Tahoe, CA (Lake Tahoe)

    July 25 – 28: SDCC – San Diego, CA

    So, Paramount released this Super Bowl commercial with Knuckles in it. So, it's look like they might be promoting the show there.

    Happy birthday to Knuckles! His game that he first appeared turns 30 years old today! Also, that Lodge event in Colorado is happening now!It's free, but I think you need to register for it in order to get in.:

    It's seem more likely that Paramount want to show the trailer at the Super Bowl, since Knuckles is one of the characters who appeared in that Super Bowl ad.

    Well, the Lodge event just ended. Unfortunately, there wasn't much footage of the event there and the Knuckles bowling game wasn't seen in any of the videos. However, fortunately, the event will be coming to the Super Bowl starting this Thursday.:

    Also, here is a editor who is working on the show. She is the editor of 2 episodes.:

    Also, this person posted these back on December. She is playing a bowler named Sally.:
