About Sonic Prime
Sonic is a beloved character and holds a special place in everyone’s heart including my own, Netflix’s Director of Original Animation, Dominique Bazay, said in a statement following the announcement.
I spent many hours with the blue blur as a kid and it’s a privilege to be able to bring this character everyone knows and loves on a brand new adventure with Netflix — one that a generation of loyal fans and brand new fans around the world can enjoy.
The series based on the beloved video game — which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year — is said to build upon the momentum that was generated for the iconic character following the release of the Sonic the Hedgehog movie last year, with an all-new adventure that aims to match the scale and scope of the epic adventures synonymous with the Sonic franchise.
