Washington DC, February 19

Actress Kristen Bell will join the voice cast of 'Sonic the Hedgehog 4' as Amy Rose the pink creature with a major crush on the titular blue speedster.

Ben Schwartz, who provides the voice of Sonic in the live action film, shared the new casting announcement on his Instagram handle on Wednesday, welcoming Kristen Bell onboard.

"WE HAVE OUR AMY ROSE!!! And I could not be more excited!!! Please welcome the incredible kristen annie bell to the sonic movie family!!!" wrote Ben Schwartz.

Along with the caption, the actor also shared an adorable photo of them holding the toy version of their Super Sonic characters.

Bell is prolific in the voice acting arena, as seen in Disney's wildly popular 'Frozen' franchise. She also voiced a sloth in Disney's 'Zootopia 2' and narrated the hit CW television show 'Gossip Girl,' reported Variety.

Bell, who broke out in the 2004 teen drama 'Veronica Mars,' stars in the Netflix series 'Nobody Wants This.'

Plot details for the fourth film of the Super Sonic franchise are currently under wraps.

In prior 'Sonic' entries, Idris Elba and Colleen O'Shaughnessey voiced the speed demon's anthropomorphic pals Knuckles and Tails, and Keanu Reeves is behind the mysterious Shadow.

Meanwhile, Jim Carrey has portrayed the hedgehog's main antagonist, Dr. Robotnik, and James Marsden and Tika Sumpter play Sonic's adopted parental figures.

Jeff Fowler has directed all three 'Sonic' films, which have collectively grossed 1 billion USD at the global box office, according to Variety.

He's returning for the fourth installment, set for theatrical release in March 2027, reported Variety.

The Sonic movies are surprisingly fun. Good family entertainment. Jim Carrey as Robotnik is the highlight for me. Hope they keep the same energy in part 4.

March 2027? That's a three-year wait! They're really taking their time. I hope the plot is worth it and not just another rehash. The cast is stellar though.

Interesting to see a live-action franchise based on a video game do so well. The $1 billion box office is impressive. It shows there's a massive global audience for this.

Respectfully, I feel they are stretching this franchise a bit thin. Three movies already, and a fourth? The charm might wear off. But I'll probably still watch it with my nephew. 😅

Keanu Reeves as Shadow! That's the real news for me. Bell is a good addition, but the whole cast is amazing. Hope the story does justice to such talent.
