I think Night of the Werehog was Sega's way of "testing the water" to see if Sega can cut it making a cinematic movie. NotW was met with possitive response and I guess they decide to go with it. That could be a possibility...by the way you should check out my new response on the "Why is the Sonic movie rated PG-13" discussion. It's really interesting. Check it out! You'll be surprised (maybe)....
