Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is now Jim Carrey's highest-grossing movie of all time, overtaking previous record holder Bruce Almighty.
The latest Sonic movie has a current total of $485.7 million at the global box office, while Bruce Almighty made $484.4 million when it was released back in 2003.
Carrey plays a dual role in the movie as Dr. Ivo Robotnik (AKA Eggman) and his grandfather, Professor Gerald Robotnik. Keanu Reeves joins the franchise to voice Shadow the Hedgehog, alongside a voice cast that also includes Ben Schwartz as Sonic, Idris Elba as Knuckles, and Colleen O'Shaughnessey as Tails.
Bruce Almighty, meanwhile, saw Carrey play a TV reporter who gets the chance to try being God for a week. Directed by Ace Ventura: Pet Detective helmer Tom Shadyac, the cast also includes Morgan Freeman, Jennifer Aniston, and Steve Carrell.
Sonic 4 has been in development since December 2024 and is set for release in March 2027. Robotnik's fate was a little up in the air at the end of the threequel so Carrey's return isn't set in stone for any future movies, but that doesn't mean a potential return isn't on the cards.
"We hope that they make a zillion of these and who knows, by Sonic The Hedgehog 8… like with the Fast & Furious franchise, that's demonstrated that nobody really needs to stay dead if you don't want to," screenwriter Josh Miller told GamesRadar+ last year.
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is now streaming on Paramount Plus in the US and Canada. For more, get up to speed with this year's best upcoming movies with our guide to the biggest movie release dates in 2025.

Princess Sofia Missed a Dazzling Tiara Moment After Debuting Baby Princess Ines at Royal Event
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. State banquets are always a highlight on the royal calendar, filled with pomp, ceremony, elaborate decor and, of course, tiaras. The Swedish royal family owns quite the collection of jewels, and they brought out the bling for a state banquet in honor of an Icelandic state visit on Tuesday, May 6. While King Carl XVI Gustaf, Queen Silvia, Crown Princess Victoria, Prince Daniel, Prince Carl Philip, Princess Madeleine and her husband, Chris O'Neill, attended the glittering event, Princess Sofia was notably absent. Although 40-year-old Sofia, who is married to Prince Carl Philip, recently brought her three-month-old daughter, Princess Ines, for her first balcony appearance on April 30, she stayed home from the banquet. The Swedish princess gave birth to baby Ines on Feb. 7 and therefore is officially on maternity leave, but she did step out on the palace balcony last month as it was her father-in-law the king's birthday. Along with baby Ines, Princess Sofia and Prince Carl Philip are the parents of three boys: Prince Alexander, 9, Prince Gabriel, 7, and 4-year-old Prince Julian. Sofia might have skipped this week's state banquet, but her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law dazzled in heirloom family jewelry—and even sneakers—at the event. Queen Silvia kept it comfy in white trainers as she recovered from a foot surgery, pairing her sneakers with a sparkly pink gown and matching wrap. And although her footwear might have been sensible, she went big with her jewels. The Swedish queen wore a diamond tiara known as Queen Sofia's tiara, adding a massive pink topaz and diamond necklace and matching earrings. As for Crown Princess Victoria, she repeated a white gown covered in colorful floral appliqués, adding the Swedish Aquamarine Kokoshnik tiara to her look. Meanwhile, Princess Madeleine—who wore a strapless, berry-hued gown—debuted a special family diadem, wearing the King Edward VII Ruby Tiara. Per The Court Jeweller, Madeleine is the only modern royal to have worn the 120-year-old piece other than Queen Silvia.

Baby Princess Ines Has Her First Matching Moment With Mom Princess Sofia in Tiny National Costume
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Princess Ines might only be four months old, but she's already getting into the National Day spirit—and in adorable style. Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia of Sweden's new baby made a surprise appearance with her parents to celebrate Sweden's National Day on Friday, June 6, joining mom and dad to officially open the palace to visitors. And even though she's just an infant, this marks Ines's second official royal appearance. Princess Sofia is on maternity leave at the moment, but she surprised royal watchers by bringing Ines to help open the royal palace in Stockholm Friday. Dressed in a national costume with the colors of the Swedish flag, Sofia held her daughter, who was adorably clad in a matching blue and yellow dress with a white shirt underneath and white tights. In a video shared by Carl Philip and Sofia on Instagram, the couple wrote, "Glad nationaldag🇸🇪 Today we opened the Royal Palace for visitors." They're seen opening the massive wooden doors to the palace with Ines and waving to onlookers before groups of visitors flooded through the gates. The prince and princess also brought Ines into the courtyard to greet people from the Swedish Scouts and the Prinsparets Stiftelse, or the Prince Couple's Foundation, the charitable organization created after their 2015 wedding. Although Sofia and Ines didn't take part in the rest of the National Day festivities, Prince Carl Philip joined the rest of the Swedish royal family, including his parents, King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia, sister Crown Princess Victoria and brother-in-law, Prince Daniel. Princess Ines—who is eighth in line to the throne—was born on Feb. 7, joining big brothers Prince Alexander, 9, Prince Gabriel, 7, and Prince Julian, 4. She was given the title of Duchess of Västerbotten by her grandfather, the king, at birth. The little princess made her first official appearance at just two months old, joining her family on the palace balcony to celebrate King Carl Gustaf's birthday. Royal fans will have more photos of baby Ines to look forward to soon enough. On Friday, June 13, the princess will be christened on a very special day—Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia's 10th wedding anniversary—at the same church where they got married in 2015.

Summer Game Fest 2025 introduces a first look at Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, revealing new crossover characters and new map. The teaser shows off the classic Sonic characters in their classic racing vehicles. However, the big reveal is that Hatsune Miku, Ichiban Kasuga from Like a Dragon, and Joker from Persona 5 are joining the frey. Worlds collide from their respective games and worlds! Japanese video game director, producer, and designer, Takashi Iizuka, also revealed that Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds will launch with online crossplay, so friends can play together. Iizuka jabbed at Mario Kart World, not having this feature on the new Nintendo Switch 2. The biggest hype that it ends on is the new Minecraft collab map. It showed an Ender dragon flying through the racing map. For now, Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds will be coming out on all platforms, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, and PC, on September 25, 2025. With over 70 Gadgets to choose from, there are countless ways to customize your approach to each race. Whether it's boosting your speed or carrying more items, each combination of Gadgets allows for a different playstyle, so players can strategize how they want to beat the competition and be the first to cross the finish line! Plus, the fan-favorite Extreme Gear hoverboards from Sonic Riders are back and better than ever, amping up the high-speed fun and vehicle choices. Players can customize their rides inside and out by mixing and matching parts, powers, and abilities. This means players can create tailor-made rides. Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds not only transports players to tracks inspired by classic Sonic stages, but also introduces the all-new Travel Rings mechanic, whisking players away across land, sea, air, time, and even space mid-race! The twist is that whoever is in the lead gets to pick which world everyone gets transported to during the second lap, so no two races are ever quite the same. Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds is racing onto consoles, releasing in both Standard and Digital Deluxe editions. Grab the Digital Deluxe edition to jump into the race three days early and expand your rosters with even more racers, including characters from the hit Netflix series Sonic Prime. Plus, the Digital Deluxe edition includes the Season Pass, which is packed with bonus characters, vehicles, and new tracks inspired by other worlds and franchises. More will be revealed in the near future. Pre-orders being today! Time to start those engines, and put the pedal to the metal.
