People didn't love the way Sonic the Hedgehog looked in his trailer. So the film's director says he's going to be redesigned for the final movie:

When the 'Sonic the Hedgehog' trailer came out earlier this week, it immediately set off an internet-wide case of odontophobia. While no re-imagining of a beloved childhood character will ever be without critics, CGI Sonic's human-like teeth and general un-Sonic-like proportions really freaked people out.

Now Jeff Fowler, the movie's director, is saying the team is actually going to redesign the character in light of all of the feedback.Thank you for the support. And the criticism. The message is loud and clear... you aren't happy with the design & you want changes. It's going to happen. Everyone at Paramount & Sega are fully committed to making this character the BEST he can be...

It's going to happen. Everyone at Paramount & Sega are fully committed to making this character the BEST he can be..."Fowler ended his tweet with the admittedly clever tag"#gottafixitfast.

But CGI animation is hard work. In Fowler's words, it looks like they're gonna have to fix it fast.
