“If we could have turned around and started working on movie two then and there, he probably would have. “When we shot that little thing at the end of the first film, that little teaser on the mushroom planet, shaving his head and being crazy, it was the promise of things to come,” Fowler recalls. Speaking of Robotnik, Carrey’s performance as Doctor Eggman is, for those who missed Sonic 2 in theaters, delightfully unhinged, and it makes his take on the iconic villain in the first film look like an exercise in restraint. It brings in the best of the games, the sort of imagination, the creativity of those designs, but then grafting it into the real world.” Seeing that stomping around a small town in Montana is very compelling to me. To see that in the real world is such a crazy visual - the design of it, Jim Carrey operating this thing. “You look at this giant robot, Robotnik’s Eggman robot from this movie.

Fowler says, for him, the live-action nature of the series is inherently exciting. Sonic 2, like the first movie, is a live-action film, although Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles (Idris Elba) are obviously CGI creations. Maybe just go a little off of your gut a little bit.” How do you really take the best parts of the game and the game characters, the relationships, and the stories, and adapt them for an hour-and-whatever-minute movie? It is tricky, but I think the trick is really not to think about it too much. “While all those factors are there, it’s really, like, what’s a movie I would want to watch, whether it’s as a Sonic fan but also as a movie lover. “I try not to think about it, really,” Fowler laughs. Does it try to appease longtime fans of the games, newcomers and non-gamers, little kids, or irony-poisoned adults? Who are the Sonic movies for? “They’re both hilariously funny and they’re wonderful to work off of, so I am a lucky lucky girl.”īen Schwartz and Colleen O'Shaughnessey attend the 'Sonic the Hedgehog 2' Family Day at Paramount Pictures Charley Gallay/Getty Images Entertainment/Getty ImagesĪs evidenced by O'Shaughnessy's past experiences, Sonic is a long-running franchise, and as a result, the new movie series has a lot to live up to. “We’re at the beginning of their relationship here, and in previous things that I’ve worked on, it’s already been established.”īoth Sonics that I’ve worked with are phenomenal actors,” she says of Schwartz and Roger Craig Smith, who voices Sonic in the show and games. “The difference is that they’re at a different point of their relationship,” she says of the movie, which depicts the first meeting of Sonic, burgeoning hero, and Tails, insecure inventor. However, she’s not voicing the same Tails as she did in the show or the games. O'Shaughnessey is unique amongst the Sonic 2 cast because this is not her first playthrough. I actually listened to a lot of kids when I first started doing voiceovers - not in a creepy way!” she adds with a laugh. “But, as far as coming up with a boy sound, a boy voice, I have some natural gravel to my voice already.

“When people ask me that, I’m like ‘I don’t know how I do it,” O'Shaughnessey tells Fatherly, before acknowledging that a lot of it comes from her old acting classes.

You’ve got to be ACTING, and then you’ve got to find “the voice.” Even the pros, like O'Shaughnessey, who voiced Tails in this movie, the Sonic Boom TV show, and the video games since 2014, admit there’s a trick to it. It’s not just reading a script into a microphone.

You’ve got to really let go of your inhibitions. This may come as a shock, but I am not as good a Sonic as Ben Schwartz, who voices the blue speedster in both movies. No, I will not be sharing the results of my work.

And, they offered the chance to step into a professional voiceover booth so that members of the press could try their hand at recording a line of dialog as Sonic the Hedgehog. To ring in the occasion (get it?) Paramount invited Fatherly and a handful of other outlets to chat with director Jeff Fowler and Colleen O'Shaughnessey, who voices Miles “Tails” Prower. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 hit theaters in early April, but as is perhaps befitting someone who has “gotta go fast,” the film is already available to stream digitally as of May 24, and it will arrive on DVD and Blu-ray on August 9.
