With Keanu Reeves confirmed to be the voice of Shadow the Hedgehog in the upcoming third Sonic movie, now both Cyberpunk 2077 and Sonic the Hedgehog feature Keanu Reeves and Idris Elba.

KEANU REEVES OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED AS THE VOICE OF SHADOW OHHHHHHHHHG MY GOODNESSSSS

[evangelifloss]

I fucking hate saying this but people celebrating Keanu Reeves being Shadow's voice actor is NOT the time to chime in with a "well actshually he's a violent Zionist and hates palestian people" because it truly is in bad taste that doesnt actually help anyone. All it does is push the notion that you shouldnt like person A because they are secretly evil and you should feel bad.

Where was this energy before? Where was this take PRIOR to the announcement? Why are y'all speaking up about it now, when there was all this time and opportunity for the past year to do so?

I guess I wouldn't be so bothered by it if the claims were verifiable beyond "trust me bro" sources. The ONLY thing I can confirm is he visited Israel in 2014. If Keanu really is this genocide-supporter, please give me some sources.

The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed the casting of Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog in #SonicMovie3 in a new report that's just been published.

It's happening. #SonicNews #SonicTheHedgehog

So Ellie, since it was just officially confirmed, I need to know. What's your opinion on Keanu Reeves voicing Shadow in Sonic 3?

[mars-wuz-herez]

Hehe the chuckle fucker/edge lord is confirmed to be played by none other than Keanu Reeves

Not a bad choice

at least it wasn’t Chris Pratt

[just-barely-a-somebody]

overnight my brain has been taken over. It started with the news that Keanu Reeves will voice Shadow for the third sonic movie (so hYPED), but then also confirmation that Jim Carrey’s returning as eggman, and suddenly remembering those funky gay people (stobotnik) is all I can think about.

We’ve got head over heels adhd superior suck up, and loudly prefers robots over humans autism that still keeps the other around. They are gay.

(idk abt the adhd headcanon for agent stone but i just rlly like the adhd/autistic relationship dynamic of both being neurodivergent in such different way but both ostracized from general society)

Ik the third movie is still many months away, but maybe when it’s closer I’ll revisit + go thru my list of predictions (and unrealistic wants) for what might happen in the third movie that I made over a year ago after rewatching the second movie and haven’t touched since.

Personally, while I think it’s a weird choice, I think a voice actor ,and actor in general is only as good as the writer, and director, I think as long as the story works, as the the powerful moments are directed and written and kept powerful and meaningful then the VA and actors will do their best. I ain’t 100% but I think a actor is only as good as the thing their acting for. If that makes sense.

I think that these asks are supposed to go together. If not, I’m sorry for the assumption. I’m reading them as if they’re supposed to be the same ask, but sent salt a different time…

Hey Hon!❤️✨

I can completely understand where you’re coming from. I do, I promise. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts with me.

The reveal did feel a bit underwhelming. Like you, I think we were expecting a little teaser of sorts. With Idris Elba, we did get the poster reveal and him actively sharing his excitement. (If you’ve ever seen him do interviews about Knuckles, you can 110% see that he loves the guy a lot). Since Keanu Reeves doesn’t have a social media outlet, I think that we were hoping for something from the main SCU Twitter account to promote it. It felt a bit odd to hear it from a Hollywood reporter, then having other entertainment news outlets confirm the authenticity.

I think that part of the divide that I’m seeing is that we didn’t have the hype of the reveal that came with it. We had a blast with Idris as “Knuckles” because he actively participated in fan engagement.

Like you, I believe that we need to wait a little bit longer before we make a final judgement call. I was very careful about that last night. We don’t have all of the details of how this will play out. I’d hate to make an assumption about something until I’m able to see the full picture. And with the announcement made, I’m sure that the SCU account will share something fun😁

For those of you who are overjoyed, I’m so happy for you! I truly am! I can’t even begin to imagine how excited you are for your dream actor to appear in SCU. “Exhilaration” isn’t a strong enough word to describe the hype that you’re creating. I’ve greatly enjoyed seeing the celebrations all over Twitter, Instagram, and here. And thank you very much for sharing your thoughts and excitement with me! Let’s be respectful of others—regardless of where they stand with their beliefs/views of the casting choice—and continue to have fun!
