Paramount Pictures has yet again pushed back its “Sonic the Hedgehog” movie back three months, from Nov. 8 to Valentine’s Day release date.
After fans criticism over the appearance and design of the Sonic hedgehog particularly his teeth and lean legs, the team really heard what fans said and decided to make changes in its character’s look.

Director Jeff Fowler tweeted that it was “taking a little more time to make Sonic just right.”
He further address the backlash following the trailer release. “The message is loud and clear… you aren’t happy with the design & you want changes,” he tweeted. “It’s going to happen. Everyone at Paramount & Sega are fully committed to making this character the BEST he can be…”.
“Sonic the Hedgehog” will face off against Universal’s romantic comedy “The Photograph,” and Fox’s untitled “Kingsman” movie, the third in the franchise.
The project is based on the Sega video game franchise, had been in the works at Sony, but Paramount picked up the project last year when the studio let its film rights lapse. Sega launched the Sonic game in 1991 and has sold more than 360 million copies to date, including both packaged and digital games on consoles, tablets and mobile.
