Well this is something a bit different!

Having stolen the show as Christian Grey’s sister in Fifty Shades Freed, Rita Ora has signed on for her next acting project. And naturally, coming off the back of a steamy erotic thriller, the obvious next choice is… Detective Pikachu!

According to reports, the singer-turned-actress will appear in the live-action adventure, although details of her character have yet to be disclosed. She’ll line up alongside Ryan Reynolds (as the voice of Pikachu), and a starry ensemble including the likes of Ken Watanabe, Bill Nighy and Kathryn Newton.

  • The Pokemon Company says, ""There’s more to this Pikachu than a detective hat – he’s one lovably gruff, tough-talking sleuth, with a taste for good coffee."

The film will follow the adventures of youngster Tim Goodman, who enlists the help of Detective Pikachu when his father suddenly goes missing. Yeah… sounds pretty mad, but with a cast this glitzy, it’s definitely got our attention. Directed by Monsters vs. Aliens helmer Rob Letterman, Detective Pikachu will open in the UK at some point in 2019.
