'Pokémon Detective Pikachu' Has Been Leaked — by Ryan Reynolds

Pokémon Detective Pikachu hits the big screen this week, but already the film has been "leaked" — and by none other than star Ryan Reynolds.

Reynolds — who voices the incredibly cute and cuddly titular character — took to his Twitter, where he linked to a "screener." But while it starts off looking seriously legit, complete with a "R. Reynolds" watermark, it soon becomes something else entirely and one seriously awesome act of trolling. Before long, the "leak" descends in Pikachu dancing to some pumped-up '80s jazzercise music. And the lil dude dances and dances and dances for nearly two hours, in fact, as the loop plays on and on. And honestly, it's cute as hell.

Pokémon Detective Pikachu, which was directed by Rob Letterman, comes out for real on Friday (May 10), and you can read Exclaim!'s review of the film over here.
