Sonic The Hedgehog 2 breaks box office record

If you're looking for a movie to distract the kids these holidays, this is the way to go.

'Sonic The Hedgehog 2' has shown itself as a must-see movie for 2022. The film has beaten 'Morbius' and 'Ambulance' with a stellar opening weekend and now it's broken a box office record!

According to Variety, the sequel to the 2020 film based on the SEGA game outsold 'Morbius' and 'Ambulance', grossing over $71 million in its opening weekend making it the highest-grossing debut for a video game adaptation.

That's significantly more than the original, which earned $58 million in comparison.

It's no surprise that a third movie in the live-action series was recently confirmed, while Idris Elba, the voice of Knuckles, is getting his own spin-off series on Paramount Plus.
