UPDATE: Keanu Reeves' casting has been confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter. THR's reports that multiple sources have told them about Reeves' casting. You can check out their report here.
Original Article:
Shadow the Hedgehog is going to be appearing in the next Sonic film, Sonic the Hedgehog 3. That much is known, but we haven't had any information on who, exactly, will be voicing the Ultimate Lifeform. Well, thanks to film industry insider John Campea, it seems that it will be none other than Keanu Reeves.
So, let's get this out of the way. Yes, it's that Keanu Reeves. The same Keanu Reeves that stars as hitman John Wick. The same Keanu Reeves that was called "breathtaking" at that one E3 years ago. He is apparently the one that will be voicing Shadow the Hedgehog in Sonic the Hedgehog 3. He's currently involved with the cast of comedy film Good Fortune and black comedy film Outcome.
According to Campea, he heard the information at a CinemaCon party via "someone most people would recognize" and was told not to say anything about it until the week after CinemaCon ended. He even says it's "100% locked" and we can "expect major publications like Variety and The Hollywood Reporter report on it very soon". He doesn't know the exact time they will report on it, but apparently the news should be officially confirmed at any time this month.
Of course, we can't stress enough that this is just a rumor. There hasn't been any official confirmation from anyone about the matter. Even Campea says that, even though he's confident it's true, he's "some nobody". So, until then, you should keep an open mind on this. But, if true, this would obviously be a huge addition to the cast. It would mean that Jim Carrey and Keanu Reeves are involved with a Sonic the Hedgehog movie, and that is quite a timeline us Sonic fans are in!
