Ryan Reynolds is going to catch them all.

The Deadpool star has signed on to star in Legendarys live-action movie adaptation of Pokemon, THR has learned.

Reynolds now joins Justice Smith, who will be seen in the upcoming Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, and Big Little Lies actress Kathryn Newton in the movie, titled Detective Pikachu, that is based on the gaming franchise.

Rob Letterman (Goosebumps) is directing the project, which is due to start shooting mid-January in London.

The concept of Pokemon, which was initially a card-collecting game as well as anime, sees players acting as trainers who collect cute but powerful monsters called Pokemon in order to compete in battle tournaments.

Pikachu is a species of Pokemon, while Detective Pikachu the character is a peculiar sort from the Pikachu set, a self-styled investigator who is good at finding things. Reynolds will play the titular Detective Pikachu.

Anyone else annoyed that the article said that Pokemon originated as the card game?

Pokemon starting out as a Gameboy game seems like a pretty big thing to fuck up in an article about it...

Because that was always a stupid meme that made no sense. Not that I like the idea of Ryan Reynolds voicing him, but it's at least better than DeVito.

As probably the biggest Pokemon fan on the board, I'm okay with this. Big fan of Reynolds.

No idea why people are so flustered in this topic. Aside from the DeVito thing but he refused the role so eh.
