Pokemon Go Fever Grips Hollywood. Film Version Might Be Coming Up

IANS, 14 Jul, 2016 12:11 PM
    It seems Hollywood has also caught the fever of newly released game Pokemon Go as a live-action Pokemon movie is reportedly being considered by film studio Legendary Pictures, reported Deadline.
     
    The studio is close to landing the rights to make the film based on the pocket monster game from Japan.
     
    Details are scant at this point and no deal has been closed yet, but it's headed that way, according to sources.
     
    Legendary Pictures and Pokemon USA have not commented on the report as both parties are presumably yet to finalise the deal.
     
    Pokemon has suddenly become a big thing again following the release of game Pokemon Go.
     
    The new game puts Pokemon in the real world by utilizing GPS location information and makes players chase down the virtual pocket monsters in their own vehicles.
     
    The franchise that began as trading cards in the 1990s has spawned a Japanese TV series and animated movies.
