Possibility of a Return as a Movie
According to rumours circling the Internet; Ex Archie Writer and Artist, Ken Penders, had been in discussions with the Board room of Sega of America about his ideas to revive the SatAm Franchise as a movie. He came away victorious as Sega probably gave him the nod to it.
The idea of it has come under critcism due to the fact that Ken Penders wishes to the Movie to be live action and be of epic proportions like the Lord of the Rings. It is unclear at this stage if characters like Robotnik and Snivley will be played by real people and the rest of the cast like Sonic and Sally will be done using CGI.
The only obstacle that Penders has left to overcome is convincing Sega of Japan as Sonic X is popular in the Western world and it may have a conflict of interests.
I know we all heard rumors, but this might be ligit here, then again, I could be woung, what do you think?
I heard it was fake as usual
Where did this story come from?

That bit right there makes me think this story is false. A story where nearly every character is a talking animal, done live action? How is that supposed to work?
It's from the SatAM article on Wikipedia. Therefore anybody could have written and embellished it.
The Archie and SatAM articles on Wikipedia in particular are in need of attention. I do what I can.
In any case, the movie was NOT going to be SatAM-based but Archie-based. And if you'd checked the topic list, you'd have found this thread which is only a couple months defunct.
