Pokemon Live-Action Series at Netflix Remains in the Production, Deets Here
Pokémon, one of the world's largest franchises, has been expanding through spinoffs, anime shows, and live-action projects. However, it took longer than expected to reach live-action, with a live-action project only produced in 2019. Fans are eagerly awaiting more, as they see the potential of the universe in this new medium.
The battling mechanics and designs of Pokémon have been translated from games to screen, but there is still more work to be done and opportunities to capitalize on. The Pokémon Trading Card Game and anime show have been popular spinoffs, but no follow-up has been produced.
A new report explores the history of the Pokemon franchise, which has been a global hit. Despite years of silence on Pokemon's pursuit at Netflix, it seems the project is not dead, as it has been a subject of interest for years.
Over on social media, a reliable scooper known as Daniel RPK (Daniel Richtman) sparked buzz with Pokemon fans as they posted about Netflix's live-action project. According to the post, the live-action show is still "reportedly in development" with writer and showrunner Joe Henderson.
The Pokemon show, based on the character Red, is expected to bring the beloved Pokemon franchise to life. Fans of the franchise will recognize Red from the manga, games, and anime, as Ash Ketchum was based on him. Netflix may want to explore the anime miniseries for inspiration, as it brought Red to life in its first generation.
