Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Blasts Past Box Office Milestones
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 has achieved another box office triumph, securing its place as the second highest-grossing video game movie adaptation in North American history. Boosted by the addition of Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog, the film has raked in over $204 million domestically after its fourth weekend, adding $11 million from 3,582 theaters. Globally, the film's impressive box office total stands at $384.8 million.
This latest installment surpasses its predecessor, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, in the domestic market. However, it still trails significantly behind the reigning champion, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which boasts a staggering $574,934,330 in domestic earnings and a truly monumental $1,359,146,628 globally. These figures set a remarkably high bar for future video game adaptations, though upcoming films like the Minecraft movie and the Super Mario Bros. sequel could potentially challenge its dominance.
Despite the considerable gap, the success of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is undeniable. It's a significant win for Paramount Pictures, who have already greenlit Sonic 4.
For context on other successful video game movie adaptations, 2022's Uncharted holds fourth place domestically with $148,648,820, followed by the original Sonic the Hedgehog film in fifth with $146,066,470.
