Sonic the Hedgehog director Jeff Fowler has responded to fan criticism over the appearance and design of the titular blue hedgehog, saying it will be changed soon.
Fowler took to Twitter to address the criticism and his decision to change the design, reports variety.com.
“The message is loud and clear,” Fowler wrote on Twitter on Thursday.

“You aren’t happy with the design and you want changes. It’s going to happen. Everyone at Paramount and Sega are fully committed to making this character the best he can be,” he added.
Most of the fan outcry on the Internet, which broke out after the trailer was released on Tuesday, seemed to be around the use of human teeth on Sonic, who is, in fact, a hedgehog and would have much smaller and pointy teeth. And some fans were unhappy with Sonic’s disproportionate legs.
