It looks like the Detective Pikachu movie has been slightly re-branded.

Legendary Pictures has debuted the first official banner for the upcoming live-action video game adaptation, and it reveals that the movie will now be known as "Pokemon: Detective Pikachu." Not a huge change, but it does make the title more of a mouthful - although it's obviously a smart move to get Pokemon in there somewhere!

Hopefully this means we'll get our first glimpse of the little fella himself soon, so keep an eye out.

Ryan Reynolds will provide the voice of Pikachu, and he'll be supported by Justice Smith, Kathryn Newton, Ken Watanabe, Suki Waterhouse, Chris Geere, Rita Ora and Bill Nighy. Pokemon: Detective Pikachu is set to hit theaters on May 10, 2019.

@Unites - I think they wanted to make a comedy that was a Pokémon movie, and didn’t really put much consideration into the Pokémon lore. They just wanted to make a funny movie with a known property, and stuck their hand into a hat.

So next year we will have a Detective Pikachu live action movie with Ryan Reynolds, a Dora The Explorer live action movie and a Sonic live action movie with Jim Carrey as Eggman? We live in a fantastic world! Can't wait to downlo... watch them!

@Oskir - By the way the "Pokemon" in the titla clearly means that if the movie is a box office success we will have a Pokemon Cinematic Universe right?
