Sonic Casting Call

Based on a piece that DaveMan1000 did over on DeviantArt, here's my pick of vocal performers for a hypothetical Sonic film cast (with the additional proviso that no game actors can be used). Here are my selections:

Ben Schwartz-Sonic
Jamie Bell-Tails
Idris Elba-Knuckles
Kimiko Glenn-Amy Rose
Daniel Craig-Shadow
Eva Green-Rouge
Andrea Libman-Cream
Daisy Ridley-Blaze (come on, British Blaze would be awesome)
Tom Holland-Silver
Christopher Reid-Espio
Chloe Moretz-Charmy
Dwayne Johnson-Big
BRIAN BLESSED-Doctor Robotnik
Matthew McConaughey-Metal Sonic
Nolan North-Infinite

Who would you pick in a theoretical cast? Let me know in the comments!

I would love to watch a movie where Tom Holland is playing silver

[Booster Spice]

ROFL at Robotnik.

[Gaius Stephanus Caesar]

I'd prefer Damian Lewis as Shadow TBH (Keanu Reeves would be too obvious). If you've seen his performance in the series Homeland you'd bet he'd be a great Shadow.

come on, British Blaze would be awesome

Thinks of fan art of that for Blaze. X3

[CROSSOVER KING]

Great casting, man.

I especially like Daniel Craig as Shadow.

[Thomlight Sparkle 1]

This is a good cast selection.

Me too. I think he'd fit the part like a glove.

I BELIEVE YOU MEANT ROFL AT ROBOTNIK IN ALL CAPS!

[The Blue EM2]

5650922
I'll give that a look.

He can do dark and brooding extremely well, if Bond is anything to go by.

[The Blue EM2]

Glad you like it.

I believe it's on Disney+ UK (I'm American so it's on Hulu here).

[The Blue EM2]

Thanks.

[Gaius Stephanus Caesar]

No problem.

[The Blue EM2]

5651019
Yup.

[CROSSOVER KING]

5650992
Agreed.

[sunsetshimmer_13]

Colleen Ann O'Shaughnessey makes a better Tails than Jamie honestly

[TheLegendaryBillCipher]

I want to see what metal Sonic would look like in this universe. Crossing my fingers he's Robotnik's grand finale in the last movie.

[The Blue EM2]

5651024
Yes.

[The Blue EM2]

I agree, but a self-imposed challenge on this was that I could not use any actors from the games.

Here's one fan's suggestion.

Crossing my fingers he's Robotnik's grand finale in the last movie.

IF the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Movie turns out to be the last one. It will be doubtful if that's the case.

[The Blue EM2]

5651407
Depends. I'd rather the series went out with a bang rather than get saddled with sequelitis.

[JimmyHook19]

5651410
True.

But we'll just wait and see.

[The Blue EM2]

5651413
Indeed.
