It looks like 20th Century Fox is putting 3D plans for the release of Sonic X: The Final Chapter - Part 1 to a scrap as the studio cancels the release for the first part of a two-part series finale of the blockbuster franchise based on the popular video game series, Sonic the Hedgehog.

Fox said that Part 1 of Sonic X: The Final Chapter will not be released in to 3D theaters at all. Instead, it will be opening only in regular and IMAX theaters. But, the release date is still set for November 15, 2013.

Fox is deeply sadden for the fact that 3D could help the film boast up box office business, and they will have to accept only regular theaters. Fox relizes that it will take up to a year to convert the film in 3D, and they do not want to reschedule the film's release date, so they decided to cancel 3D plans for Part 1.

However, Sonic X: The Final Chapter - Part 2 will still be in 3D. So make Sonic X: The Final Chapter - Part 1 the first Sonic the Hedgehog theatrical movie in the franchise not to be in 3D. The last time was the fourth installment, Sonic X: Return to Soleanna, and that film was the last time to be showing only in regular theaters, while other films; Sonic X: The Final Stand and Shadow the Hedgehog were released in 3D.

Sonic X: The Final Chapter - Part 2 will open in 3D theaters, also in IMAX 3D and regular on July 25, 2014.
