Paramount and Sega Sammy have confirmed development on the sequel is underway, with director Jeff Fowler returning. Writers Pat Casey and Josh Miller are also coming back. As the project is in such early development, no plot details have been released yet.
However, the first movie featured two post-credits scene that may have an impact on the upcoming story. They feature –SPOILER ALERT– a stranded Dr Robotnik plotting his revenge and the arrival of Tails on Earth. Tails is another popular character from the video-game series.

It garnered mixed reviews but was a far better movie than anyone could’ve anticipated. Some have even called it one of the best video-game movie adaptations. It also features a welcome return to form with Jim Carrey’s performance.
