With tickets going on sale over the weekend, Paramount Pictures has released the first official clip from Jeff Fowler's eagerly awaited Sonic the Hedgehog.

Also, thanks to some well-deserved goodwill earned by the filmmakers for going back to the drawing board and redesigning the iconic video game hero, the film is currently tracking for a 4-day opening in the $41 million to $47 million range over the course of Valentine's Day weekend. This would be a pretty stellar start for the long-awaited film, which reportedly carries a $95 million production budget.

On another note, during the Grammys last night, Paramount debuted the film's electrifying official theme song, "Speed Me Up," which is a joint collaboration between Wiz Khalifa, Ty Dolla $ign, Lil Yachty and Sueco the Child. The music video sees the four popular hip hop artists transformed into 16-bit characters and joining Sonic on his latest adventure.
