Sonic the Hedgehog is staying on-brand and speeding to a digital release earlier than expected. The Paramount hit is the latest high-profile theatrical release to arrive in homes early, amidst the expanding list of U.S. and international theater closures during the COVID-19 pandemic. The film joins previously announced pre-releases including The Invisible Man, Onward, The Hunt, and Bloodshot.

Sonic The Hedgehog will debut early for purchase on Digital on March 31. The film will then be available for rental and on 4K, Blu-ray and DVD on May 19. In addition, the 4K Ultra HD & Blu-ray Combo Packs will come with a limited edition comic book featuring an adventure with Sonic and the Donut Lord.
