Idris Elba has lent his voice to the character, which will see him train his deputy sheriff Wade Whipple (Adam Pally) in the ways of the echidna warrior.<\/p>\n
Recently chatting to Collider<\/a>, Elba gave an insight into the series, saying that \u201cit does not shy away from being super detailed and just as good, in terms of quality and depth and writing and performance, as the movie series\u201d.<\/p>\n He added: \u201cI think that if you wanted to know a little bit more about Knuckles, you get to know a\u00a0whole\u00a0<\/em>lot more about him. So, that\u2019s what I like about it. It is a real universe dive.\u201d<\/p>\n Without further ado, here\u2019s everything you need to know about Knuckles \u2013 including its release date<\/a>, plot details, and the all-important cast!<\/p>\n Knuckles will hit Paramount Plus<\/a> on 26th April <\/strong>in the US, and Saturday 27th April <\/strong>in the UK.<\/p>\n All six episodes will be released at once.<\/p>\n The following cast members star in Knuckles:<\/p>\n Elba has admitted it\u2019s \u201csurreal\u201d to be playing the role, especially after he grew up with the Sonic games as a child.<\/p>\n He recently told PA: \u201cIt feels like a bit of a dream, it feels like being able to step into a video game, and into a film, because I\u2019ve always loved Sonic.<\/p>\n \u201cI love the world. I played the game when I was a kid and now I\u2019m in it, so it feels quite surreal.\u201d<\/p>\n Schwartz is also expected to reprise his role as Sonic the Hedgehog, after he took on the leading role in the 2020 and 2022 films, and will return again with Elba in the upcoming third film this December<\/a>.<\/p>\n The official synopsis for Knuckles reads: \u201cThe new live-action event series follows Knuckles<\/span> (Idris Elba) on a hilarious and action-packed journey of self-discovery as he agrees to train Wade (Adam Pally) as his prot\u00e9g\u00e9<\/strong> and teach him the ways of the echidna warrior.\u201d<\/p>\n The events of Knuckles take place in between Sonic the Hedgehog 2<\/a> and Sonic the Hedgehog 3<\/strong> \u2013 so the release order helpfully matches the chronology.<\/p> You can watch the trailer for Knuckles below:<\/p>\nKnuckles: Release date for Sonic spin-off<\/strong><\/h2>\n
