Development

[edit]

In January 2019, months ahead of the release of Detective Pikachu, Legendary Entertainment announced that a sequel was already in development, with Oren Uziel signed on as screenwriter.[1] However, on May 3, 2021, Justice Smith said regarding a potential sequel: "I think we have to just kind of bury our hopes. I don't think it's going to happen. I really hope so though",[2] while in October 2022, Kathryn Newton, admitted to being optimistic about a sequel. In February 2023, it was revealed that the film is still in active development, though Uziel was no longer writing the screenplay.[3]

In March 2023, it was announced that Jonathan Krisel would direct the film, and Chris Galletta would write the screenplay.[4]
