  • First Footage of Sonic Prime Confirms New Sonic Voice Actor

    Introducing Deven Mack!

    This morning, Netflix After School released a new sizzle reel for upcoming animated kids and family shows, with a brief (very brief) bit at the end featuring Sonic Prime:

    The scene shows off Sonic running in Green Hills (featuring rings and Sonic running in his figure-8 style). He mugs to the camera, delivers a line about how cool he is, and... that's kind of it for now.

    It's not a lot to go on for now, but the performance sounds Roger Craig Smith-like in voice, but with a little bit of Ben Schwartz delivery. It plays up Sonic's ego a bit (which isn't a facet they play up much in the games, but shows itself prominently in Sonic Boom and the movie), but this is inferring a lot based on a single line. Hopefully this means that we'll be getting a full trailer in the near future.

    Netflix also appears to have updated its website with some more details. As you can see from the screenshot above, the new voice of Sonic is Deven Mack. A range of new voice actors are also listed, none of which appear to be connected to the current video game acting cast.

    More details as we get it. Thanks to Lemanic for the news tip!

    Also I can't believe they got Knuckles' Sonic Underground voice back for this.

    I can, Brian Drummond is a goddamn workhorse in the world of Canadian VAs. Expect him to sound nothing like that role.

    Never got the Multiverse overuse complaint tbh.  The series has rarely dabbled in it. Honestly has much more story potential, compared to something like time travel.

    It’s less in regards to Sonic, and more in general. Marvel, DC, Power Rangers, a lot of stuff has been into it at varying points, especially Marvel and DC, and it’s just not a story trope I personally enjoy. Alternate dimensions and multiple versions of characters and all that aren’t as interesting to me, at least just on that point alone. Stories can use it well, but that’s just how I feel about it.

    This isn't new info. We've know it's been a multiverse story since it was announced.

    maybe. But this is also the first I’ve really paid attention to the show. Knowing it’s been that way since announced doesn’t really change my view though.

    If anyone's curious as to who Deven Mack is

    He looks like this, and did voice work in Johnny Test (Reboot, Mr. White) and Angry Birds: Summer Madness (Chuck)

    What I'm surprised by is that Scott McNeil isn't here. That man is in everything Canadian.

    Too early for me to judge based on only a few seconds of footage in a sizzle reel. I will wait until we get a full trailer before I pass judgement (Hopefully soon!)

    Well, at this point it looks like Sonic Boom, but in non-Boom setting. Which is not a bad thing tbh, SB was an awesome TV show.

    according to IMDB he is lol

    On a serious note, I wouldn't be surprised if he did additional voices. He's been kinda chilling the past few years.

    I hope this is like Spiderverse where the alternate universe versions of Sonic are like from Sonic X, SATAM, etc. and not just generic versions like Pirate Sonic or something.

    Yeah it's to have Canadian based actors only hence the different voices.

    Dunno about you, but this gives me more hope.

    I agree, the first few seasons of SpongeBob were awesome!

    Sonic's lines here are cut and pasted. I'm sure of it. I can't really get a good sense of what he sounds like when it's been cut to pieces.

    Oof. Hearing SpongeBob gives me a bit less hope. I’ve reached the point where I can’t really stand the show anymore, even the earlier stuff

    Running animation looks weird. There's a recurring problem in animating Sonic to give his feet the sped up figure-8 style run effect. If the character isn't moving through the landscape quickly enough, it can make it look almost like he's running on a treadmill. He's running faster than he's moving and ironically it makes him look slow instead of fast. Sonic 4 and Sonic Lost World were both offenders in this category.

    Am I the only one not fully sold on this?

    Parts of it look really good... but other parts look a bit... I don't wanna say unfinished but more of a "it'll do" standard?

    That’s the standard we’ve been at for a long time now.

    Those are just past and future versions of Robotnik. They don't seem to be from other universes.

    Well, they seem to be. I don't know. Lol.

    Also, there is another concept art that seem to have an alternate version of Amy. I forgot to bring this up.:

    This is going to be an interesting discussion. From what I've seen, the show is definitely leaning to more of a look similar to the games, and what seems to be an entirely Canadian voice cast who, aside of Drummond, I'm not as familiar with.

    "He sounds like he's trying to be Roger." Nah sounds like he's trying to be Ben, I hear no Roger there.
