The upcoming live-action Sonic the Hedgehog 4 movie has landed a noteworthy television and film star for a key role, casting Kristen Bell as the hammer-wielding pink hedgehog Amy Rose.
Per The Hollywood Reporter, Bell, who is best known for her lead roles in The Good Place, Veronica Mars, and Frozen, has closed a deal to join the cast of the sequel, which is scheduled for a March 2027 release date. Sonic voice actor Ben Schwartz, who co-starred in House of Lies with Bell, celebrated the news in an X post that included a picture of both actors holding figurines of their respective characters.

Amy Rose made a small appearance in the post-credits scene of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, fighting off several Metal Sonic robots with her trusty Piko Piko Hammer.
