The trailer for the upcoming movie also touches on themes of togetherness, family.

"You finally found your family, and I know it hasn't always been easy, but you didn't change who you are," Sheriff Tom Wachowski (James Marsden) tells Sonic (Ben Schwartz) as the preview opens.

The trailer also reveals that Shadow's backstory included loss whereas Sonic's included belonging. Like Sonic, Shadow (Keanu Reeves) can move at supersonic speeds. The anti-hero can also control time.

The Sega video games inspired the movies which opened in 2020 and 2022.

The film also stars Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik.
