Sonic Races Past Mario Bros. for No. 2 at Box Office

Feb 22,2025 Author: Matthew

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 races past another box office milestone, securing its place as the second highest-grossing video game movie adaptation in North American history.

Boasting Keanu Reeves as Shadow the Hedgehog, the film has raked in over $204 million domestically after its fourth weekend, adding $11 million from 3,582 theaters. Globally, the film's impressive box office total stands at $384.8 million.

While surpassing its predecessor, Sonic 2, in the domestic market, Sonic 3 still trails significantly behind the reigning champion, The Super Mario Bros. Movie. The Mario film's domestic gross of $574,934,330 and global total of $1,359,146,628 represent a seemingly insurmountable lead in the video game movie adaptation category, although upcoming films like the Minecraft movie and the Super Mario Bros. sequel could potentially challenge this record.

Despite the considerable gap, the success of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is undeniable, representing a significant win for Paramount Pictures, who have already greenlit Sonic 4.

Other notable video game movie adaptations include Uncharted (2022), which holds the fourth position with $148,648,820 domestically, and the original Sonic the Hedgehog film in fifth place at $146,066,470.
