Sonic the Hedgehog 2 isn’t set to hit theaters until April, but the film is already ramping up its marketing and capitalizing on another big property by parodying the recently released The Matrix Resurrections.
The sequel will arrive in theaters on April 8, 2022.
A poster for the upcoming sequel asks players whether they’ll take the red quill or the blue quill, an obvious homage to the red and blue pills that Neo is asked to choose between in The Matrix films.
It’s also been confirmed that the video game’s fan-favorite characters Miles “Tails” Prower and Knuckles the Echidna (voiced by Idris Elba) are now joining Sonic in the sequel.
