It’s not that his quills are just thin and tightly bunched together so they look furry the movie’s producer has confirmed that the character has fur.

The movie won’t take place on Earth, so they can always say that Sonic is an alien or maybe the version of a hedgehog that you’d find in other dimensions, but that only goes so far. It’s part of what integrates him into the real world and makes him a real creature.” “It was always, for us, fur, and we never considered anything different. “It would be weird and it would feel like he was running around nude if he was some sort of otter-like thing,” executive producer Tim Miller (director of Deadpool) told IGN. The movie’s creative team disagrees, however. Translating a cartoon character into three-dimensional space and putting them into the real world is always going to be a challenge - we already had this argument when it came to Pikachu’s fur - but Sonic presents another layer of problems. And there’s also the issue of all that fur. His arms and legs look heavily muscled, for starters. IGN has released an exclusive “motion poster” that hints at what the character will look like in the film, and we already have some concerns about what they’ve done to our friend Sonic. Popular video game character and social media luminary Sonic the Hedgehog is getting his own live action/animated hybrid film from Paramount Pictures in 2019, with Ben Schwartz ( Parks and Recreation) cast as the titular mammal.
