Fortunately, Fowler seems to have made some excellent choices in that regard. Of course, the key to Sonic the Hedgehog's success will lie in its voice-cast. Sonic the Hedgehog was pushed back a final three months in order to fine-tune the VFX, after viewers gave a very negative response to Sonic's 'realistic' appearance in the first trailer although Sonic the Hedgehog is clearly aimed at younger viewers, Paramount hope old-school fans of the games will give it a chance as well, if only because they've listened to feedback. No expense has been spared to make this a hit. Still, the gamers' daydream is finally a reality thanks to director Jeff Fowler ( Gilmore Girls, Where the Wild Things Are), with a script written by Patrick Casey and Josh Miller. Sega has been attempting to make a movie since all the way back in 1994, but progress hasn't been quite so speedy as Sonic himself.

Sonic is the stuff of gamer legends he's Sega's most famous playable character, a bright blue hedgehog who's been speeding through rings since his debut in 1991.
