Sonic the Hedgehog 3's box office triumph continues, solidifying its position as the second highest-grossing video game movie adaptation in North American history.
The film, featuring Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog, has raked in over $204 million domestically after its fourth weekend, adding $11 million from 3,582 theaters. Globally, the film boasts an impressive $384.8 million.
While surpassing its predecessor, Sonic 2, in the domestic market, Sonic 3 still trails significantly behind the reigning champion, The Super Mario Bros. Movie. The Mario film's domestic gross of $574,934,330 and global total of $1,359,146,628 represent a seemingly insurmountable lead in the video game adaptation box office race, though upcoming films like the Minecraft movie and the Super Mario Bros. sequel might challenge this record.
Despite this, the success of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is undeniable, a significant win for Paramount Pictures, which has already greenlit Sonic 4.
Other notable video game movie adaptations include Uncharted (2022), fourth on the domestic list with $148,648,820, and the original Sonic movie, fifth with $146,066,470.
