While Sonic the Hedgehog 3 writers were adamant they wouldn't shoot Maria dead, they had to come up with a different way to give Shadow its revenge arc.

“There's no real formula to that, per se,” admits Miller as he and his creative partner sit down with me over to Zoom to discuss the third entry in Paramount’s Sega-inspired series, which is very close to passing $1 billion in ticket sales worldwide.

We can confirm that Sonic the Hedgehog 3 has two credit scenes – and you absolutely do not want to miss them. The first one comes straight after the title at the end of the movie, so you likely won't even have gathered up your coat by then. But then there's another one post-credits that's also worth sticking around for.
