Sonic the Hedgehog 3 has zoomed past another box office milestone, securing its place as the second highest-grossing video game movie adaptation in North American history. Boosted by Keanu Reeves' portrayal of Shadow the Hedgehog, the film has raked in over $204 million domestically after its fourth weekend, adding $11 million from 3,582 locations. Globally, its impressive total stands at $384.8 million.
This success surpasses its predecessor, Sonic 2, in the domestic market. However, it still trails significantly behind the reigning champion, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which boasts a staggering $574,934,330 domestically and a phenomenal $1,359,146,628 globally. While these figures might seem insurmountable for future video game adaptations, upcoming films like the Minecraft movie and the Super Mario Bros. Movie sequel could potentially challenge this record.
Despite the considerable gap, the team behind Sonic the Hedgehog 3 has much to celebrate. The film is a resounding success for Paramount, which has already greenlit Sonic 4.
For context, other notable video game movie adaptations include 2022's Uncharted, in fourth place with $148,648,820 domestically, and the original Sonic movie, in fifth with $146,066,470.
