Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie is a 1996 original video animation directed by Kazuho Ikegami and written by Mayori Sekijima and Masashi Kubota. It is based on the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise.

Originally released in two episodes in Japan, it was edited into a direct-to-video film and dubbed in English in 1999.
