Production

Development

In April 2016, it was reported that Legendary Pictures was in negotiations for the live-action film rights to Pokémon.[11] Later in July 2016, Legendary was nearing to close a deal for the film.[12] On July 20, 2016, it was announced that Legendary and The Pokémon Company had signed on a deal together to create the first live-action film in the franchise, which would be based on the video game Detective Pikachu.[13] Initially, Universal Pictures would handle the distribution outside Japan, while Tohowould handle the Japanese distribution.[14] On August 16, 2016, Nicole Perlman and Alex Hirsch were in negotiations with Legendary to write the screenplay.[15] Later revisions were provided by Eric PearsonThomas McCarthyDerek Connolly, Dan Hernandez, Benji Samit and director Rob Letterman.[16] On November 30, 2016, Legendary hired Rob Letterman to direct the film, which the studio had fast-tracked for production to start in 2017.[17] In January 2018, it was announced that Mary Parent, Cale Boyter, Hidenaga Katakami and Don McGowan would produce the film, along with Joe Caracciolo Jr. and Ali Mendes, with Joe Caracciolo, Jr. and The Pokémon Company's Tsunekazu Ishihara as executive producers.[18] Pokémon creator Satoshi Tajiri is also credited as an executive producer.[19]
On July 25, 2018, Warner Bros. announced they had taken over worldwide distribution duties (except in Japan and China) from Universal, with the release date unchanged.[20] The reason for adapting Detective Pikachu came from The Pokémon Company and Letterman's desire to make a movie that focused on another character besides Ash Ketchum, the protagonist of the Pokémon anime series. On the premise, Letterman stated, "The Pokémon Company, they've already made many, many movies of Ash, and they came to Legendary with this idea of using a new character. So when I came onboard, I was pitched this character of Detective Pikachu, and I fell in love with the story behind it."[21] The idea of talking Pokémon originated from an early concept for the 1990s anime series, but was scrapped when the original game developer Game Freak was unsatisfied with the concept, before the idea was revived for the 2016 Detective Pikachu spin-off game.[22]

Casting

In November 2017, Justice Smith was cast in the lead human role, with Kathryn Newton cast to costar after an intense session of reading and testing actresses who would appear opposite Smith. Newton beat out Natalia DyerHaley Lu Richardson, and Katherine Langford for the role.[23][24] In December 2017, Ryan Reynolds was cast in the titular role to be portrayed via motion-capture.[25] Other actors considered for the role were Danny DeVitoDwayne JohnsonMark Wahlbergand Hugh Jackman.[26][27][28] In January 2018, with production commencing, Ken WatanabeBill Nighy and Chris Geerejoined the cast.[29][30] In February 2018, Suki Waterhouse and Rita Ora joined the cast.[31][32] In April 2018, Omar Chaparrojoined the cast.[33]
When the film's Japanese release was announced on November 29, 2018, Ryoma Takeuchi was confirmed to voice Tim Goodman in the Japanese dub.[34] Takeuchi also has a brief cameo appearance in the movie itself as a Pokémon trainer.[35]On March 20, 2019, it was confirmed that Marie Iitoyo will voice Lucy Stevens, and Ken Watanabe will reprise his role as Detective Yoshida in the Japanese dub.[36]

Filming

Principal production began on January 15, 2018, in LondonEngland and DenverColorado.[37] Nine days later, Legendary announced that principal photography had officially begun.[38] The press release revealed that Alex Hirsch was no longer involved with the final draft of the script and that Rob Letterman, Benji Samit, Dan Hernandez, Derek Connolly and Nicole Perlman were the only ones credited.[39] Much of the on set interaction and vocal reference for Pikachu was filled in by Jon Bailey. However, all of his dialogue was dubbed over by Ryan Reynolds.[40] Principal photography concluded on May 1, 2018.[41] Some filming was done at Shepperton StudiosWarner Bros. Studios, LeavesdenMinley Woods in Hampshire, rural areas of Colorado; just outside Denver and Colorado Springs, and Scotland.

Letterman compared the visual effects to the character of Rocket Raccoon from Guardians of the Galaxy. "They're technically, some of the most high-end visual effects in the world... It's completely photo-realistic, like they are alive and in the movie." Additional audio recording of a supposed fight between Detective Pikachu and Charizard was recorded at the Pokémon World Championships 2018.[21]
