10 Recent Movie Rumours That Were Totally WRONG
7. Sarah Paulson Will Play Rouge the Bat - Sonic the Hedgehog 3
Given that the first two Sonic the Hedgehog movies concluded with fan-serving teases for new characters - Tails and Shadow respectively - it was reasonable to consider who might show up in the third film.
And while many fans correctly guessed that Sonic 3 would introduce fan favourite character Amy Rose at the end, there were those who convinced themselves we'd also get to see super-spy jewel thief Rouge the Bat.
Moreover, word quickly spread that Rouge would be voiced by none other than the great Sarah Paulson, no matter that the only source for this rumour was an edit on Sonic the Hedgehog 3's Wikipedia page listing Paulson as playing the part.
Paulson herself even debunked the rumour last September when asked about it, though added that she was totally up for playing Rouge if the filmmakers wanted her to.
Even with Paulson's denial, some fans weren't persuaded until they finally saw the movie for themselves. where both Rogue and Paulson were neither seen nor heard.
