Detective Pikachu
Warner Bros have released a behind the scenes featurette of Ryan Reynolds' upcoming movie Detective Pikachu.
The movie follows the story of 21-year-old Tim on a mission to find his missing father with help from Detective Pikachu.
Ryan admits in the featurette that he was excited to create a film that his kids would watch.
"Detective Pikachu's got some sass, he's got some serious attitude."
"He's a larger than life character and he kind of has to be - he looks like a little yellow cotton ball."
"I try to bring as much personality out in the character as I possibly can."
Reynolds' co-star Justice Smith describes the concept as "incredible."
"This contradiction of seeing this cute cuddly thing have Ryan Reynolds voice... it's incredible."
Watch the full featurette below:
The plot

They join forces and chase clues together through the neon-lit streets of Ryme City.
The city is a sprawling, modern metropolis where humans and Pokémon live side by side in a hyper-realistic live-action world.
Here, they encounter a diverse cast of Pokémon characters and uncover a shocking plot.
A plot that could destroy this peaceful co-existence and threaten the whole Pokémon universe.
Pokémon Detective Pikachu is out on the 10th of May.
