The writers of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 discuss why Amy Rose's debut was limited to the post-credits scene despite initial plans for a larger role.
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 writers Pat Casey and Josh Miller revealed that a post-credits character almost had a greater role in the main story. They explained that Amy Rose 's debut marks a major change for the titular character's future arcs. The third movie in Paramount's movie franchise based on Sega's beloved blue speedster saw Ben Schwartz's Sonic come face to face with powerful rival Shadow the Hedgehog (Keanu Reeves).
Alongside Schwartz and Reeves, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 sees Jim Carrey, Idris Elba, Colleen O'Shaughnessey, James Marsden, and Tika Sumpter reprise their roles from previous movies in the franchise. While Amy Rose makes her post-credits character debut rescuing Sonic from a horde of Metal Sonic duplicates, Casey and Miller revealed to Screen Rant that she almost played a greater role in Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Casey states that there had been early discussions to feature Amy Rose within the main story of the movie, though they ultimately felt that the movie's plot could become overcrowded if they featured her. Despite these conditions, they knew that her debut was a long-awaited moment for many fans that they had to include: Casey said, 'We talked long and hard about including her in the body of Sonic 3, but then ultimately realized there was just too much going on already, and we didn't want to give her a short shrift. We didn't want to crowd Shadow out, but we also knew that there are a lot of fans who would love to see Amy, like girl fans, in particular. I've got little nieces, ever since they discovered Amy existed, they've been asking me where Amy is. They won't leave me alone. So we've definitely been like, 'We got to get Amy in here soon.
