At long last, things are about to get underway for the Sonic movie. Or, at least, that’s the intention. The Omega Underground is reporting the following:

Director Jeff Fowler is aiming to get Sonic rolling by around July and will shoot over the summer in Atlanta, Georgia.

Obviously this isn’t set in stone, but it’s a good sign that they’ve finally begun to plan out production of the movie. It seems that the struggles that plagued the early months of the movie’s production are behind them.

How exciting. I hope they don’t right for the sonic brand.

Has Alec Baldwin been hired to portray Dr. Eggman in the Sonic the Hedgehog movie yet?

I’m worried but cautiously optimistic.

I would still be fine if they delayed the release for 2020 but stuck to starting filming in July. At this point I don’t want anything to feel rushed. I want as much time, care, effort, and passion put into the filming, acting, writing, and CG work and the fact is that the more time you have to worry about perfecting all of those things, the better chance you have at a better result. Sometimes miracles can happen, and the guy in charge of the project clearly understands how to be faithful to his source material as well as how to make exciting action sequences, but what I’m saying here is that as long as they insist on giving themselves a one-year time limit, they’re really pushing their luck. It feels like the cinematic equivalent of trying to roast a marshmallow by sticking it right in the flames and hoping they’ll pull it out in time before it gets too burnt.

So Omega is running a rumor mill/tabloid newspaper company now? I would have thought Team Chaotix Detective Agency would be breaking a story of this scale!

Atlanta. This could mean Station Square.

I was looking at some pictures from Atlanta and boy you are right! It could really pass as Station Square, even its highway connections look as crazy as Speed Highway.
