Sonic The Hedgehog 3 has raced past another major milestone, securing its position as the second highest-grossing video game movie adaptation in North America. Starring Keanu Reeves as the iconic Shadow the Hedgehog, the film has amassed over $204 million domestically after its fourth weekend, pulling in an additional $11 million from 3,582 theaters. Globally, it has achieved a staggering $384.8 million at the box office.

The latest Sonic installment has now surpassed its predecessor, Sonic 2, in the domestic earnings race. However, it remains a distant second to the top-earning video game movie adaptation, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which raked in an astounding $574,934,330 in North America and a global total of $1,359,146,628. These record-breaking figures set by the Nintendo adaptation may prove to be unbeatable, though upcoming releases like the Minecraft movie and the sequel to The Super Mario Bros. Movie could potentially challenge this benchmark.

Despite not reaching the top spot, Sonic The Hedgehog 3 is a resounding success for Paramount, which has already greenlit Sonic 4. The film's performance is a testament to the enduring popularity of the Sonic franchise and its successful transition to the big screen.

For those interested in other successful video game movie adaptations, 2022's Uncharted ranks fourth with domestic earnings of $148,648,820, while the original Sonic the Hedgehog movie comes in fifth with $146,066,470.
