Today, The Hollywood Reporter announced that Oscar-nominated actor Ken Watanabe (Godzilla, The Last Samurai) has joined the cast of Lionsgate’s Detective Pikachu. While you may think he would make a perfect Pokemon Professor in the first ever live-action Pokemon movie the actor is actually playing a character named Detective Yoshida made just for the film.
