One Sonic 3 reveal of popcorn buckets might have accidentally given more away than it should have, with a big cameo potentially spoiled in the announcement.

Now, movie tie-in popcorn buckets are nothing out of the ordinary, with Deadpool and Wolverine bucket made headlines earlier this year. But this one also came with a Funko Pop reveal, which seems to spoil a cameo in the movie.

Regal shared the item on her Twitter account, and in the figure lineup, you might notice one that appears to be Cream the Rabbit — and she even has Cheese the Chao by her side. Cream hasn’t been announced as part of the film, which makes her appearance here a little odd… unless, of course, she’s a surprise cameo that’s been hidden until now.

Of course, we have no way of knowing for sure if cream (and cheese) is actually in the movie. This could just be a fun piece of merchandise featuring the beloved character. But it certainly seems like Cream showing up is a possibility.

One character that we know for sure will appear in the film is, of course, Shadow – voiced by Keanu Reeves. “For 50 years, Shadow has been in a state of suspended animation. He comes out of it to seek revenge,” Reeves teased. “It was really the inner journey to get to the anger and the emotions. It was intense.”
