The humorous tone of the first feature is again present, as well as the relationship between Sonic and the character of James Marsden. So much so that the trailer opens with the hedgehog breaking into Rachel's (Natasha Rothwell) wedding while escaping with Tails from an army of Dr. Robotnik (Jim Carrey).

In fact, the villain appears in the sequel with motivations much closer to those that fans know from the games than in the first film. So much so that much of the plot must revolve around the hunt for the Chaos Emeralds, the iconic jewels that are part of the series' mythology and that guarantee infinite power to those who dominate them. And that's what will appeal to Carrey's character.

And that's where we'll see the long-awaited clash between Sonic and Knuckles. The echidna voiced by Idris Elba had already been shown before, but now we see more clearly both the actor's interpretation and the antihero's ability to beat Sonic down.

For those who are crazy about references and easter eggs, the trailer already brings a good dose of mentions to the games. Starting with the classic theme song that plays on Marsden's cell phone as in the snowboarding scene, which is a very fun game with the Sonic Riders series games, which had the hedgehog doing extreme sports.

In addition, the poster released by Paramount also plays with video games, recreating the iconic art of Sonic The Hedgehog 2, for Mega Drive, but with the characters from the film.

Sonic: The Movie 2 hits Brazilian theaters on April 7.
