Everyone's favourite blue hedgehog can't guarantee a successful game, but it turns out that Sonic can really put bums in movie theatre seats.
]]>The team behind Sonic the Hedgehog 3 has proven it knows how to make a video game movie, and now the writers have shared that they'd like to tackle a Zelda movie.
]]>Be careful out there, Sonic fans, as spoilers for the third movie have seemingly hit the internet.
]]>Sounds like we're in for a big serving of eating your best friends with Yellowjackets season 3, as its co-creator has warned viewers to "buckle up".
]]>Keanu Reeves is the Shadow the Hedgehog none of us saw coming, but it turns out that Sonic the Hedgehog 3's director felt John Wick was a perfect "audition" for the character.
]]>Showtime is continuing its attempt to bring back Dexter with a new prequel series, Original Sin, and the first trailer for it is finally here.
]]>Paramount and Sega have graced us with a new trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 today, and a bit unexpectedly, there's a reference to Pokemon in it.
]]>Amazon seems to be doing great with its action thriller TV shows, and after giving the breakout hit Reacher an early season 4 renewal, the company is trying to get a Jack Ryan movie off the ground... even though the show ended last year.
]]>Avatar: The Last Airbender now has a huge action-RPG in the works, and it's coming from Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 developer Saber Interactive.
]]>Paramount has put out a new trailer for Gladiator 2, and it might be a bit more welcoming to those who don't like to mix new with old.
]]>Avatar: The Last Airbender is a really beloved series, and with a new animated film on the way, the newest actor behind Katara is hoping she doesn't mess up.
]]>Everybody Still Hates Chris, the animated continuation of 2000s sitcom Everybody Hates Chris, finally has a release date.
]]>Yellowjackets has been filming for a few months now, and it sounds like there's a new cast member that could be roped up, tied up, dead in a year.
]]>After an incredibly long wait, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 finally has its first trailer, and it's looking like an absolute doozy for fans of the series.
]]>Marvel Studios has tinkered with its plans a lot in recent times. Sometimes because of indecision, sometimes out of real necessity. The biggest recent example is moving on from Kang as the Multiverse Saga's big baddie and instead going with Doctor Doom... played by Iron Man veteran Robert Downey Jr because things are mostly bleak right now. On the TV side of things, meanwhile, we're still stuck with head-scratching shows like Vision.
]]>Van Helsing lives again as a TV series in development at CBS, but the premise isn't what we were expecting.
]]>The first trailer for Smile 2 is here, and it looks like it's promising to up the stakes a touch in the upcoming sequel.

]]>Knuckles just arrived on Paramount's streaming service Paramount Plus this week, but it looks like you'll be able to pick it up on DVD and Blu-ray.
]]>We all know Sonic the Hedgehog loves chilli dogs, right? That’s not some weird deep cut from the 90s multimedia Sonic takeover that I’ve just internalised, is it? It feels like canon to me: the blue blur loves to eat, and specifically, he loves chilli dogs. You can collect them in some of the more obscure games as collectibles, and the social media posts are full of them. It’s well established, both in universe and outside of it.
]]>It's sounding like Sonic 3 is set to be a hit with massive fans of the series, if you ask Knuckles himself Idris Elba anyway.
]]>Paramount's ambitions are high when it comes to Sonic, as the franchise's lead producer wants them to be "Avengers-level events."
]]>Despite the third entry having been released eight years ago, Star Trek 4 is still moving ahead, though with a slightly different crew.
]]>The world of horror films clearly sees the value in the games industry, as Paranormal Activity is the latest to make the switch.
]]>Sonic Adventure 2 fans, it'll soon be your time, as it's been confirmed that the greatest song from all of the series' games, Live and Learn, will be in Sonic 3.
]]>It’s that time of year again, folks. Yes, we’re talking about the Super Bowl. And while many are gearing up to cheer for their favorite team, many are content to just watch some of the creative commercials airing during the big sporting event.
]]>The next Kick-Ass is set to be a reboot of the series, yet the film's director is saying it will be the third entry in a new trilogy of films - and the first two won't be Kick-Ass movies.
]]>Roughly one month before its premiere, a new trailer for season 2 of the Halo TV series on Paramount+ has arrived, and it's full of action and grit.
]]>The Star Trek franchise seems to be doing great nowadays with TV shows and video games coming out regularly, but the film side of the business seems kind of cursed (at least that's what Chris Pine thinks). It's been more than seven years since Star Trek Beyond was released, yet new theatrical Star Trek projects seem to be stuck in what sometimes feels like development hell.
]]>In a fitting way to conclude a terrible year for the entertainment industries, we've learned that Warner Bros. Discovery could potentially merge with Paramount Global.
]]>The first trailer for the second season of the Halo TV series is here, giving us a first look at the very thing the name is based on (it's a Halo).
]]>It might barely be a look at all, but we've still received our first look at Sonic the Hedgehog 3's Shadow the Hedgehog.
]]>The first trailer for the movie adaptation of the Mean Girls musical has dropped, though its original songs are surprisingly absent.
]]>Lower Decks isn’t a ‘traditional’ Star Trek show. That sentence makes perfect sense, right? Of course it’s not a ‘traditional’ Star Trek show. It’s a cartoon. The characters all speak really quickly like they’re in a cartoon. It’s animated, and it’s written and produced like a cartoon, because it’s a cartoon.
]]>In honor of Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Paradox Interactive and Nimble Giant Entertainment have released a new trailer and gameplay details for Star Trek: Infinite.
]]>The cast for the upcoming Sonic the Hedgehog spin-off series all about Knuckles has been revealed, bringing back some familiar faces and a fan favourite hat.

]]>^Stay tuned after the ad for some beloved TV themes being murdered by our video producer
]]>Season 2 of the Halo TV series has started production.
]]>Sonic the Hedgehog 2 hasn't even been out for a month, and it's safe to say that it has already been a huge success for everyone involved. Namely, SEGA and Paramount Pictures.
]]>If you’d have told me that I’d be sitting in a screening of a second Sonic the Hedgehog film, on opening day, and hear the end of the film greeted with cheering easily as loud as those I heard at the closing of a midnight screening of Avengers Endgame, I’d never have believed you. If you’d told me it after that disastrous first trailer for the first Sonic movie, I’d have had you sectioned. And yet, here we are: it happened.
]]>Halo, the television adaptation of the popular Microsoft franchise, has set a record for Paramount+ by becoming the most-watched premiere for the streaming service.
]]>Paramount's latest take on the video game movie – Sonic the Hedgehog 2 – is less than a month away from premiering. In efforts to generate a little bit more hype for the project, the studio has released a new trailer and (more importantly) a new poster for the film.
]]>Paramount+ today announced that its upcoming series Halo, based on the Xbox franchise, has been renewed for a second season prior to the series first season.
]]>We may be getting very close to taking a first proper look at the Halo TV series, but the latest news from the upcoming season isn't particularly positive.
]]>A new movie synopsis for Sonic the Hedgehog 2 seems to suggest the film will be following the events of the Sonic 3 game, with Robotnik and Knuckles taking a central role.
]]>The series has been moved from Showtime to Paramount+.
]]>Paramount has set a theatrical release date for the sequel to the Sonic the Hedgehog film.
]]>Sonic the Hedgehog has become one of the most successful video game movies of all time with an estimated $57 million at domestic box offices.
]]>The Sonic the Hedgehog movie has been delayed into early 2020 in order for filmmakers to make the blue character “just right.”
]]>World War Z, the four-player co-op shooter first revealed at The Game Awards 2017, has produced a fresh new gameplay trailer.
]]>Star Trek: The Video game launches in April, and license-holder Paramount has stressed that it won't be another shoddy cash-in. The company has said it learned a great deal from previous licensed disasters.
]]>Paramount has secured a pair of new trademarks for World War Z - the usual two-hit combo of "downloadable electronic game programs; electronic game software for handheld electronic devices; video game cartridges and discs" and "entertainment services, namely, providing online electronic games". It may be just a protective measure or it may indicate we'll see a licensed tie-in when the film arrives in June 2013. World War Z, for those under rocks, is based on a post-apocalyptic novel by Max Brooks, the follow up to The Zombie Survival Guide.
]]>Deadline has reported that Paramount is in talks regarding a film version of Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell, although when asked, the studio declined comment. According to the report, Ubisoft "will be very involved and retain control over how the game is translated into a film." Earlier reports indicated Warner was a front runner, but it appears Paramount is the safe bet. Thanks, Joystiq.
]]>And we're off. Sony just announced that 20th Century Fox, Disney, Paramount, Sony Pictures (dur), Universal and Warner Bros. are now all signed to delivery HD movies for the US PSN.
]]>Film studio Paramount is getting into games, if this is to be believed.
“Broadly speaking, it’s exciting to work for a company that has a portfolio that crosses film, interactive entertainment and online – and that’s a strength of position that [Paramount parent] Viacom certainly holds," said Paramount Digital’s general manager of worldwide distribution, Alex Carloss. "Paramount is very, very excited about the growth in the interactive entertainment market. I’m sure you’re going to see an awful lot more from Paramount in this space.”
Paramount currently licenses its properties to established games publishers such as Activision, Ubisoft, EA and Sierra.
