I love how Idris Elba tweeted a photo of Knuckles with his announcement. He's always excited for any project despite how stupid and silly it is - like Hobbs and Shaw and The Suicide Squad. It's as if no project is beneath him.
Idris sounds like a cool choice for Knuckles. His anthropomorphic character list is growing. He was a seal in Finding Dory, Bogo in Zootopia, and Shere Khan in Jungle Book.
Two things to this. One, keep an ear out somewhere because I GUARANTEE they’re gonna throw out some rap either online or in the movie as a wink and a nod to the Adventure fans. Two, which rap are you talking about? Unknown from M.E. or A Ghost’s Pumpkin Soup?
Knuckles was always designed to be 'black.' He has dreads, his shoes are the colours of the Jamaican flag and all of his theme music's in games have been performed by black artists.
I propose a scene where knuckles comes across the ruin of the echidna tribe civilization while a montage of Marvin Gaye's What's Going On is playing while homie is brooding.
They should've looked up Knuckles clip(s) from Sonic X, that version of him was the SH*T!! Always annoyed at Sonic's positivity and silly remarks, and when he's on a mission, he gets that sh*t done!

Great actor, can’t open a movie to save his life. The Suicide Squad? Nope. Dark Tower? Nope. Cats? Nope. Pacific Rim? Nope. There’s only so many more chances he’s gonna get.

Honestly it’s quite cool that idris Elba has a persona streak.
Or in this case, Fursona.
If Idris Elba says, "Do you know the way?" I will fucking lose it.
Dr robotnik: I'll happily show you the way
Bruh I can't imagine Idris Elba doing a Ugandan knuckles impression 🤣😭
watch beasts of no nation
If the first movie can make a SANIC reference, then all Idris has to say is Do You Know The Way and that's all we need👌
More like Sierra Leonean Knuckles 😜
I love how Idris Elba tweeted a photo of Knuckles with his announcement. He's always excited for any project despite how stupid and silly it is - like Hobbs and Shaw and The Suicide Squad. It's as if no project is beneath him.
He was awesome in suicide sqaud. I'm glad he doesn't phone in these sillier projects because I really enjoyed him in suicide sqaud.
As he said in an interview he has a African work ethic...dude will take any job and I love it
Ikr he's pretty cool
Idris sounds like a cool choice for Knuckles. His anthropomorphic character list is growing. He was a seal in Finding Dory, Bogo in Zootopia, and Shere Khan in Jungle Book.
And macavity in cats
@@jasonpeet6198 We ain't counting Cats....for good reasons
Too bad they didn't recognize that the tweet referenced the last verse in Knuckle's Theme in Sonic Adventure.
"Knock knock it's Knuckles"
If we get Idris Elba doing a Knuckles Rap, I can die happy XD
Two things to this. One, keep an ear out somewhere because I GUARANTEE they’re gonna throw out some rap either online or in the movie as a wink and a nod to the Adventure fans. Two, which rap are you talking about? Unknown from M.E. or A Ghost’s Pumpkin Soup?
I wouldn't discarded, Idris Elba does also have a well-known musical career in rap music, so that could potentially happen
The idea of Idris Elba saying "Do u kno da wae?" Is amazing
Knuckles was always designed to be 'black.' He has dreads, his shoes are the colours of the Jamaican flag and all of his theme music's in games have been performed by black artists.
I love Idris Elba, but Knuckles just does not seem English.
@@yerman0564 you are aware that idris can do American accents very good ones at that .
@@Deking24 oh that's good then. I've only ever heard him speak his own accent. I've gotta give those a listen. Thanks.
@@yerman0564 He regularly puts on an American accent for roles.
Knuckles is always black. It will be uncomfortable if knuckles was voiced by a non black person like the Rock and Momoa.
Idris been getting check after check...nice
THIS MAN SHOWED THE ORIGINAL MEME LMAOOOOO YES!!!
🤣🤣
If they don't have a bit where Sonic asks Knuckles "Do you know the way?" and have him knock Sonic in his shit, I am going to be VERY upset.
THEY SHOULD ASK HIM IF HIS PANTS SAG AND IF HE SHOOTS PEOPLE FOR STEPPING ON HIS SHOES.
First we thought it was Dwayne Johnson then we thought it was Jason Mamoa now Idris Elba
Momoa wouldve been perfect.
Honestly Id think theyd cast Idris Elba as like Lucario or Mewtwo before they ever cast him as Knuckles.
That would have been badass. Them or even Shadow.
We bringing back Ugandan Knuckles? I fuckin' died XD
I propose a scene where knuckles comes across the ruin of the echidna tribe civilization while a montage of Marvin Gaye's What's Going On is playing while homie is brooding.
Oi do u no da way m8.😂😂😂
Idris got that deep voice. Perfect choice.
They should've looked up Knuckles clip(s) from Sonic X, that version of him was the SH*T!!
Always annoyed at Sonic's positivity and silly remarks, and when he's on a mission, he gets that sh*t done!
I'm honestly disappointed that show didn't get enough more seasons, hell they could've introduced Silver The Hedgehog too.
@@Gideon13397 IKR!
We've all been waiting for black knuckles to return since the SA2 days. Now hopefully this means we're getting it back in spades
Uh..."Spades", a bit on the nose.
1:33 Just a normal Knuckles and Tails conversation
Idris Elba a dope actor
Idris Elba can't be knuckles, HE DOES NOT KNOW DAE WAY!😍🤣🤣🤣
Will Knuckles finally be in history again? He's only lived in nineteen-aught-seven up until now.
Ah, i see you are a man of culture as well.
OHHHHHH SHIT I SUMMONED A DEMON I SHOULD NEVER HAVE DABBLED IN DARK MAGIC
If Knuckles Elba doesn't say, "Oi mayt, do ya know tha weh to heel zown sit ey?", I riot!
The Sonic movie was fucking awesome, I don't care what anyone says. Really excited to see what they do for the next installment.
Korey go in VRCHAT , you dont even need a vr headseat
in the newest poster, Knuckles is making that Arthur meme
Billy: .....’Echidna”
🤣
Can't go wrong with Idris Elba, except for Cats but then again, I feel like the cast of that movie wants to forget they were even in that abomination.
If someone told me to be in CATS and I didn't know how it would turn out I definitely would have said yes. Hindsight is always 20/20
@@beeaveragegaming3482 I would have too.. Everybody who says different seen the after affects.. We all would have accepted the roles in Cats.. Can't flex and front..
Chris was doing Jason Stathom hahahahaaaa
Well all I can say is Knuckles doesnt look at all like an Echidna.
Same as Sonic not looking like a hedgehog too.
Maybe not from the waist up
&...... What's your point?
Ugandan knuckles died too fast. Its still one of my favorite memes to this day
They should have saved him for the third movie. Then they could call it SONIC 3 AND KNCUKLES
If we’re just finding out about this, it could be something short at the end to introduce him
@@lordrayden3045 We knew Knuckles was in the movie for months. There's set photos of Sonic,Tails and Knuckles statues in Green Hills. The Synopsis says that Knuckles is helping Eggman find an emerald.
They’re probably gonna do the Dreamcast games for the third movie if
Sonic 2 & 3 are being combined into the sequel
I can’t wait to see it, but for the sake of the running joke, I’m gonna say it….they made another red head black xD
I'm pretty sure he was a black redhead, but fair point!
I love Double Toasted man. Informative conversation with a lot of laughter - I be rolling sometimes! 😂😭
I'm only just learning that the cartoon arthur -- he's an aardvark 🤣🤣 never would have guessed
“What’s an echidna” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 we need more shows with billy and chris together
Not the voice i would've gone with, but im calling it now. Knuckles will be the standout thanks to Idirs
I wonder how his voice is going to sound, because Knuckles is 16 years old?
A younger Black American or A younger Jamaican would have been right.. but I'm curious to see how how this will turn out..
This isnt really reguarded as canon anymore
What Idris Elba tho Knuckles with a accent
Do you know the way? 😂
Is that Knuckles render offical?
If Ugandan Knuckles isn't in Sonic 2 I ain't gonna see it.
Consider me literally dead after 6:52!
Hell yeah I wanna see Will Smith and Idris Elba Chemestry
Chris' British accent is pretty good. 👍🏽
Its terrible, he sounds Australian
I hope we get a Ugandan knuckles reference in the movie
"It's an echidna..... I don't know what the fuck that is either"
*proceeds to describe the actual traits of echidnas*
-eats ants
-digs holes
Wtf? lol
Idris Elba face on knuckles 🤣🤣🤣
The Rock: IT DOESN'T MATTER IF HE'S PLAYING KNUCKLES!
man they kept showing that knuckles picture as if thats what knuckles is actually gonna look like lol.
First Zootopia, then Jungle Book, then Finding Dory, now this. Does Star Trek Beyond count as voicework or no?
finding dory
@@christopherseabrook6245 I said that already
Why are u RUHning 😂
If they don't do a Ugandan Knuckles joke it will be the biggest missed opportunity.
I thought that was a joke. But the more I think about it...Ok so it's still ridiculous but in a good way.
There is no bad Idris.
*still has PTSD from his role in Cats and that movie as a whole*
@@NovaAnarchy26 You got me, champ. Totally forgot about that.
@@MrHeretrix Haha. Totally forgot I wrote that shit tbh.
I need to hear "ma Bruddahs and Muddahs"

Missed oppurtunity to cast devito to play pikachu,and now we momoa aint playing knuckles.
Not Ugandan Knuckles. Damn that meme LUL
Am I the only one who thinks of DevilArtemis nowadays when I hear the words Ugandan Knuckles?
😂😂😂😂😂Do You Know The Way 💀
I wonder if cat daddy Martin is going to want Knucleus to be anatomically correct 🤣🤣🤣
Idris knows the way
"Do you know da way?"
An echinacea is like a spiny anteater.
They couldn't hire the original voice actor of Knuckles
Like Jaleel White for Sonic?
@@I-speak-U-shut-it Knuckles is going to sound weird with that accent
@@I-speak-U-shut-it that's like hiring Samuel L. Jackson to voice Sonic
but does Idris Elba know....DA WAE
I want Knuckles to be Stringer Bell.
I was so surprised by this news. But I do like Knuckles so I'm into this!
Knuckles is cool as hell and Shadow is alright..
In Suicide Squad he played a character named Bloodsport, bow he's voicing a red echidna. Red is the color of blood.
Reach...
Attack of the Knuckles!
That’s quite cool!! Love him
Beyonce as Rouge the bat?
With Sylvia Robinson tracks representing her
It’s so crazy that it might actually work.😂
So basically an echidna is a hedgehog/ant eater from Australia 🤔
Bruh if they can put Sanic in the movie then they have to do Ugandan Knuckles
Good thing echidnas were found in Australia.
Hope Idris doesn't chuckle one bit throughout the movie..
Bruh LMAO!!!!!
This movie is about to escalate sonic vs nuckles...... to a cartoon 007.......which is fantastic 😁👍.
I got the voice for knuckles
Idris Alba's agent really hates him. doesn't he?
What's that supposed to mean
Maybe Elba is a fan of the property and wanted to do this
@@joker99045
Or…..
He got paid
@@lordrayden3045 could be either
Ugandan knuckles!
They did not say my man's dreads were a perm. I am very disappointed.
Ugandan Knuckles....in 2021...
I really enjoyed the Sonic Movie
hahaha as an Aussies will find it wierd people don't know what an echidna is. Wonder if they know what a Wombat is.
Only because that is the animal Naughty Dog almost used before changing to Crash Bandicoot XD
Those accents sound more West African than Ugandan
I remember PlayStation Home.
Great actor, can’t open a movie to save his life. The Suicide Squad? Nope. Dark Tower? Nope. Cats? Nope. Pacific Rim? Nope. There’s only so many more chances he’s gonna get.
He didn't open cats lol
You can't really blame him for those movies. Besides Dark Tower he wasn't really promoted as the draw for either of those movies.
Can't wait for Sonic :D
Here I come, rougher than the rest of them
The best of them, tougher than leather
You can call me Knuckles, unlike Sonic I don't chuckle
I'd rather flex my muscles
I'm hard as nails, it ain't hard to tell
I break 'em down whether they're solid or frail
Unlike the rest I'm independent since my first breath
First test, feel the right, than the worst's left
Born on an island in the heavens
The blood of my ancestors flows inside me
My duty is to save the flower
From evil deterioration
I will be the one to set your heart free, true
Cleanse yourself of them evil spirits that's in you
Streaking lights, loud sounds, and instincts

I will be the one to set your heart free, true
Cleanse yourself of them evil spirits that's in you

The new porcupine on the block with the buff chest
In the wilderness with the ruggedness

I was born by myself, I don't need a posse
