Sonic the Hedgehog 4 was confirmed last year soon after the release of the third installment.
The post-credits scene for the third Sonic movie teased the addition of new character Amy Rose to the franchise.
Finally, the makers have found the right artist to voice the titular character.
Kristen Bell, known for doing the voice over in Frozen movies, has been taken on board to lend her vocals for Amy Rose in Sonic 4.
Actor Ben Schwartz, who voices Sonic in the film series, also took it to his Instagram to confirm the news. He posted a picture of himself with Bell; both holding the miniatures of their characters in their hands.
He wrote, “We have our Amy Rose!!! And I could not be more excited!!! Please welcome the incredible @kristenanniebell to the @sonicmovie family!!!”
