Exhibitors at CinemaCon got the first-ever look at “Sonic the Hedgehog 3,” which will see the blue speedster come face-to-face with his famous rival, Shadow.

In a brief teaser, we see Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik, utterly ruined after being defeated by Sonic yet again. But he finds a new way to defeat that infernal hedgehog when his assistant Stone (Lee Majdoub) discovers the fearsome Shadow the Hedgehog, whom Knuckles, played by Idris Elba, describes as “much more impressive than the hedgehog I fought previously.”

Introduced in the video game “Sonic Adventure 2” in 2001, Shadow has become one of the most popular characters in the Sonic series.
