Ending Explained
In the conclusion of "Sonic the Hedgehog," directed by Jeff Fowler, Sonic faces off against Dr. Robotnik in a climactic battle in Green Hills. Using his super-speed, Sonic manages to outmaneuver Robotnik's advanced technology. With the help of his new friend, Tom Wachowski, Sonic ultimately defeats Robotnik by sending him through a portal to a distant mushroom planet using one of his magical rings. This effectively removes the immediate threat Robotnik poses to Earth. After the battle, Sonic is welcomed into Tom and his wife Maddie's home, finding a sense of belonging and family. The town of Green Hills returns to normal, and Sonic's presence is kept a secret from the general public. In a mid-credits scene, Dr. Robotnik is shown on the mushroom planet, vowing to return and sporting a look more akin to his video game counterpart, with a bald head and large mustache. Additionally, another mid-credits scene introduces Tails, Sonic's two-tailed fox friend, who arrives on Earth in search of Sonic, setting the stage for potential future adventures.
