    We’re not sure how we feel about this, but it’ll be interesting? Idris Elba posted a pretty obvious image on Twitter that fans were positive meant he’d be joining “Sonic The Hedgehog 2” as Knuckles. Guess what? THEY WERE TOTALLY RIGHT.

    Paramount’s sequel will see director Jeff Fowler returning, as well as star Ben Schwartz voicing Sonic himself. “Sonic” cast James Marsden, Tika Sumpter, Natasha Rothwell, Adam Pally, Shemar Moore, and Jim Carrey are expected to return as well.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
