Idris Elba revealed yesterday that he's going to be the voice of Knuckles the Echidna in the new Sonic The Hedgehog sequel movie, which is the first piece of info leaked about the movie since the set pieces were shown months ago.
This career move isn't an irregular one for Elba, who previously did voice acting work in Zootopia, Finding Dory and The Jungle Book, all in 2016. More recently, Elba has been seen in the James Gunn Suicide Squad movie, so his star power was already at an arguably all-time high. Fan reactions to his selection were unanimously positive on social media.
