Directed by Rob Letterman (Goosebumps), it’s clear from just the premise that Detective Pikachu will be an irreverent film.
That Hashtag Show is reporting that Legendary Pictures is currently considering a number of candidates to voice the Pokémon protagonist of Detective Pikachu.
The conceit alone is a silly one, and it certainly subverts what many would expect from a Pokémon movie.
Specifically, the film will be an adaptation of the video game Great Detective Pikachu.
