*Sad Pikachu noise*

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Detective Pikachu star Justice Smith has recently revealed that a follow-up to the 2019 Pokemon flick is unlikely to 𒁃happen.
In a recent interview with , when asked about the ▨possibility of Detective Pikachu 2, Justice Smith revealed "I don't know if it's going to happen. I think we have to just kind of bury our hopes. I don't think it's 🦩going to happen."
The actor did reassure fans though saying that he really hopes the film does receive a sequel and that if it does, he’d love to participate in it, noting "honestly, I'm such a huge fan, who knows." Justice has since gone on to feature in a number of other projects including 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and is set to appear in the upcoming Dungeons & Dragons movie alongside 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Hugh Grant and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Chris Pine.
Despite it previously being announced that Detective Pikachu 2 had secured a screenwriter three months before the first film was even released, it now appears that the project may have been shelved, especially considering that the person hired to pen the sequel, Oren Uziel, has since gone on to work on the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:live-action Sonic movie and the recent 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Mortal Kombat film.
Speaking of the Sonic movie, the speedy hedgehog managed to rack up several gold rings at the box office, beating Detective Pikachu’s opening weekend earnings of $54 million by $3 million after raking in $57 million during its opening weekend in the United States alone. Unlike Detective Pikachu, the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Sonic movie is definitely getting a sequel which is set to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:release April 8, 2022.

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training. My expertise li🔴es in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I'm also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
