On the day of the release of Sonic 2, AlloCiné met Malik Benthalha, who plays the Blue Hedgehog, and Emmanuel Courtill, the legendary comedian, and Jim Carrey (the robot) French voice.
Sonic’s first opus, released in February 2020, created a surprise and attracted more than 2 million viewers in France. Internationally, Jeff Fowler’s feature film grossed $ 320 million with a budget of $ 85 million.
Very quickly, Paramount launched an extension project that arrives in France on April 30th. This time, the Blue Hedgehog is having fun days from Sega video games in Green Hills with his friend Tom. But Doctor Robotnik still appears to complicate the life of the hero.
In the original version, Sonic is performed vocally by Ben Schwartz. In France, it is the actor and comedian Malik Benthalha who casts his vote for him. For his part, Jim Carrey, nicknamed Dr. Ivo Robotnik, is duplicated by the mythical Emmanuel Courtill.
This experienced actor was the French voice of a Canadian actor since The Mask was released in 1994. For almost 30 years the artist has been accompanying Jim Carrey on his crazy adventures, his timbre has become inseparable from this genius actor.
In connection with the popularization of Sonic 2, AlloCiné met with Emanuel Courtill and Malik Benthalha. We discussed with them the duplication experience and the pleasure of finding Jim Carrey and the Blue Hedgehog. The interview can be seen in the video above.
