Sonic the Hedgehog 3's box office triumph continues, securing 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 surpassed $204 million in domestic revenue after its fourth weekend, adding $11 million from 3,582 theaters. Globally, the film boasts an impressive $384.8 million.
While Sonic 3 has outperformed its predecessor, Sonic 2, domestically, it remains significantly behind the reigning champion: The Super Mario Bros. Movie. The Mario film's staggering $574,934,330 domestic gross and $1,359,146,628 worldwide total represent a seemingly insurmountable lead in the video game movie adaptation category, though upcoming films like the Minecraft movie and the Super Mario Bros. sequel could potentially challenge this record.
Despite this, the success of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is undeniable, marking a significant win for Paramount, which has already greenlit Sonic 4.
For context on other successful video game movie adaptations, 2022's Uncharted ranks fourth with $148,648,820 domestically, and the original Sonic movie holds fifth place at $146,066,470.
