Tom Holland Reportedly Eyed For Role In New Pokémon Movie

It’s hard to overstate the impact Detective Pikachu had when it first released last year. Although it certainly wasn’t everyone’s favorite movie of the year, it nonetheless proved that live-action adaptations of video games could be faithful, well-produced, and emotionally resonant after gamers had been fed nothing but Hollywood’s stalest leftovers for decades. With that success in mind, the fact that Legendary Pictures quickly greenlight a second Pokémon movie seems like a no-brainer in retrospect, but our sources claim they plan to go above and beyond with one particular casting choice.

Inside sources trusted by WGTC—the same ones who previously told us the upcoming Dune film would be delayed to 2021 and that Jared Leto’s Joker will be given a makeover in Zack Snyder’s Justice League reshoots, both of which proved true—say that the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s very own Spider-Man is being considered for a new Pokémon spinoff and he’s being eyed for the role of Blue Oak.

Should he go through with the role, Holland will find himself in relatively unfamiliar territory, having become best known for playing shy genius characters in the MCU and Spies in Disguise. Blue, on the other hand, is a brash and cocky bully who exists in the story for little reason beyond taunting the player character and later being outplayed by them. But since Holland’s experience covers a much broader range of roles than people may be familiar with, this may be just what he needs to avoid being typecast.

As with all news on movies still in development though, it’s important to remember that nothing is set in stone until it’s been shot and released. The film industry is very complex and things can change at a moment’s notice for any number of reasons. Still, one has to wonder if Tom Holland’s presence in the next Pokémon movie might finally convince Danny DeVito to give fans the Pikachu performance they’ve been asking for.
