We think Elba is a stellar fit and, if his Bloodsport portrayal in The Suicide Squad is anything to go on, he’ll be a brilliant, straight-faced foil to Ben Schwartz’s fast-talking, wise-cracking Sonic. Leaked set images had already revealed that Knuckles would show up in the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 movie, but it’s terrific to finally get confirmation on who will voice the character now. As an actor whose voice is on the deeper end of the vocal register, Elba appears to be a perfect fit for a Sonic character who needs a more serious and determined tone compared to his counterparts. This certainly plays into Elba’s own vocals.
More recent Knuckles voice actors – Dan Green and Travis Willingham – have made the character’s vocals more gravelly, too.

Since Scott Dreier entered the recording booth for the Sonic TV show that ran from 2001 to 2004, though, Knuckles’ voice has deepened. Up until 2001, Knuckles had possessed a higher pitched voice in the three animated productions he co-starred in. That would see Eggman convince Knuckles that Sonic and Tails are after the Chaos Emeralds and lead to some (hopefully) fun set pieces and quips between Knuckles and his temporary foes.Īs for Elba, he’s an exciting fit for Knuckles.

Eggman still out there in the universe following Sonic the Hedgehog’s ending, we suspect that Sonic 3’s video game plot will carry over into the forthcoming movie adaptation. Eggman’s lies, though, and joins forces with the iconic duo – and they’ve been friends ever since. He made his debut in 1994 video game Sonic the Hedgehog 3, and was one of the title’s antagonists after he was tricked by Dr. Historically, Knuckles is the guardian of the Master Emerald, a massive gemstone that controls all of the other Chaos Emeralds in the Sonic universe.
The plot of Sonic 2 is currently unknown but, given that Tails and Knuckles are set to make the live-action-CGI hybrid debuts in the action-adventure sequel, we wouldn’t be surprised if it involves the Chaos Emeralds somehow. Paramount is yet to provide official confirmation on Elba’s casting, but we suspect that the actor was given the go-ahead by the studio to make the announcement. Knock, knock….#SonicMovie2 #Knuckles /N1PW5XaCEd August 10, 2021
