Pokemon: Detective Pikachu team “thought about” casting Danny DeVito, used the actor in a test

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments

Something fans long wanted to see was Danny DeVito playing the role of Detective Pikachu. Fans even petitioned for DeVito to take on the part prior to the 3DS title coming west. Those wishes never materialized, as Kaiji Tang voiced the character in the game and Ryan Reynolds was given the role in the upcoming movie.

In an interview with Game Informer, producer Cale Boyter commented on whether the Pokemon: Detective Pikachu movie team knew about fans’ interest DeVito. VFX producer Greg Baxter also revealed something noteworthy, which is that lines were taken from assorted actors’ past roles and were animated in an early version of Pikachu to the audio to see how it looked.

Detective Pikachu producer interested in the idea of a Pokemon Cinematic Universe

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments

If you’ve been keeping up with superhero movies over the past few years, a term you’ve probably heard about is the “Marvel Cinematic Universe”. It’s Marvel’s way of integrating its different movies and characters into a shared universe. Pokemon could end up going through something similar in the future.

This summer, Detective Pikachu will be the first live-action Pokemon movie from Legendary Entertainment. Based on comments from producer Ali Mendes, it sounds like he doesn’t want to stop there, and perhaps create something like a “Pokemon Cinematic Universe”.

New images of what appeared to be a look at Sonic the Hedgehog in his upcoming movie leaked earlier this week. Following up on that, we have another render – attached above.

The source of the image stems from a promotional document. While it’s unclear where exactly it came from, a Paramount employee has apparently confirmed its validity.

The Sonic the Hedgehog movie debuts November 8.

New image of Sonic the Hedgehog discovered, possibly for the upcoming movie

Update: A full body render has been added to the end of this post.

Original: The new Sonic the Hedgehog movie is eight months out from its premiere. But believe it or not, we’ve yet to see what the character looks like in the film. We’ve gotten glimpses here and there, but that’s about it.

Our first look at the popular character in his big screen role may have been discovered today. Hamagami/Carroll, a marketing services firm, has a couple of images on its website – including the one attached above. We haven’t seen this design for Sonic before, and the site says it created some packaging “for all of the licensed retail products within the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise”.
