Following some pretty damning feedback, it’s now been revealed that Paramount’s Sonic the Hedgehog movie won’t be speeding to the big screen quite as soon as we’d thought.
Sonic the Hedgehog director Jeff Fowler has taken to Twitter to reveal that the film has been pushed back by three months in order to make Sonic look “just right”.

In case you missed it, the first trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog was met by a fair amount of backlash that was largely based around the look of the titular Blue Blur. As such, the November 2019 release date has been pushed back to a new February 14th, 2020 date that will see the picture open against Kingsman: The Great Game and The Photograph.
In Sonic the Hedgehog, audiences will see the Ben Schwartz-voiced speedster going up against Jim Carrey’s Doctor Eggman in an offering that also stars James Marsden, Adam Pally, Tika Sumpter and Neal McDonough.
