Ryan Reynolds To Play Pikachu In The Live-Action 'Detective Pikachu' Movie

deadpook pikachu.JPG

If you thought video game adaptations couldn't get any more over the top, here's one for you: Deadpool's Ryan Reynolds has signed to play as Detective Pikachu in the titular movie.

Reynolds will play alongside Justice Smith who will be the movie's protagonist and will team up with Pikachu in order to find his kidnapped father.

The news broke in an article on The Hollywood Reporter. The report says that his role “is said to be motion capture in nature” à la Andy Serkis in Gollum's shoes (if Gollum ever wore any).

The shooting for 'Detective Pikachu' is due to start mid-January in London.

Ugh I really have no idea what's going on here. I can't believe that Ryan Reynolds of all people would be chosen for this kind of role but whatever.
Because by casting some popular actor they can advertise that so the movie will ve more popular and seem better.

    Illinois is working to ban toxic food additives that have been banned for decades in other countries; additives that can be replaced and all those countries still have Skittles and Mountain Dew. Title of the piece: GUBMINT WANTS TO TAKE AWAY YOUR CANDY

    @Veho, Sounds and smells like bullshit. They don't give you cancer, and California should know that. I don't get why they stick labels that say "may or may not cause reproductive harm or cancer".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Arsenic doesn't give you cancer either.
