Live-Action Detective Pikachu Movie In The Works
Yes, you read that headline correctly. According to Variety, Legendary has won the rights to make a Pokemon movie and it's centered around Detective Pikachu.
You remember Great Detective Pikachu right? Cute. Cuddly. Adorable. Very serious about work ethic. And then someone made a video with everyone's favorite electric rodent voiced by Danny DeVito. Good times.
The film has been "fast-tracked for production to start in 2017."

Our Take
It's Pokefever season again so sure, why not? I for one cannot wait to watch this story of the greatest detective of our time.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
