If I had a nickel for every time Ben Schwartz played a animated character that related to the colour blue, I’d have three nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened thrice Edit: Apparently multiple blue characters. As stated by multiple people in the comments and a Honest Trailer video about Sonic 2. Nice

Fun fact: Sonic The Hedgehog 2 was Idris Elba's fourth voice-over role, after Zootopia (2016), The Jungle Book (2016) and Finding Dory (2016), All 3 features were Disney films, making this his first non-Disney voice role, in addition to being his 2nd time doing voice over work in a live-action film.

Ben Schwartz fits the role of Sonic so well. His voice acting has such a playful and funny sound to it that makes it (in my opinion anyway) rather lovable. But also at the same time there’s an annoying childishness to it that fits Sonics character and personality (in the movies anyway) almost perfectly.
