Many people were predicting the worst for Jeff Fowler’s Sonic the Hedgehog, as understandably so, as the original design for the character was rather terrifying and no one really wanted to hand over their money to sit in a cinema watching a family film where the titular hero was a nightmare to look at. Thankfully, then, Paramount delayed the pic by three months and spent millions of dollars on a total redesign.
Things worked out well, too, as Sonic the Hedgehog went on to find itself as just the second video game adaptation ever to secure a Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes after Detective Pikachu, not to mention it’s also the fourth biggest hit of this year after bringing in $310 million globally.
Of course, a sequel was announced in short order and we know that it’ll feature Knuckles in what’s said to be a substantial role. Who will play the part remains to be seen, but fans certainly have one man in mind for the job, as you can see below.
Like and retweet if you agree that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson should voice knuckles in the sequel to the Sonic the hedgehog movie.#SonicMovie2 #SonicNews pic.twitter.com/p6PUIoEfvc

Calling it right now, Tails will be voiced by one of the Stranger Things kids, and Knuckles by a pro-wrestler, if not the rock, if he isn't already in the movie on-camera as the president.

I was kinda iffy at first on the idea but hearing this The Rock is the perfect choice to play Knuckles if they’re gonna get a celebrity voice. https://t.co/ZZuLrHVlUu

To be honest, I wasn't surprised that Knuckles was going to be in Sonic 2.
Biggest question marks is: What's his role in the story? And who's gonna voice him? (The Rock would be perfect for the role if we're going the Hollywood way, Dan Green if video games). https://t.co/Z3IO6Dhfv5

I think John Cena or Dwayne Johnson for Knuckles.

….Dwayne Johnson for Knuckles.

Knuckles better be voiced by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson

Not even joking I legitimately would actually not mind Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson voicing Knuckles in the sonic movie 2

Indeed, Dwayne Johnson would certainly be a good choice for the role and he’s even been linked to it in the past. Does that mean it’ll happen? No, but we also wouldn’t rule it out at this stage.
Whether it’s The Rock or not, though, we’ve no doubt that Paramount will rope in an A-lister for the part and you can be sure that a number of them would be willing to sign up given how successful Sonic the Hedgehog is. But tell us, do you think Johnson is right for Knuckles, or is there someone else you’d rather see in the part? Let us know down below.
