As Detective Pikachu's theatrical run is coming to an end — it's been reported that, as of last weekend, Warner Bros. and Legendary's first live-action Pokémon film has become the highest-grossing video game movie of all time.  

According to the report, Detective Pikachu has already managed to make a very impressive $436 million at the box office and setting a new record that the Warcraft movie had initially set back in 2016 — bringing in $433 million throughout its theatrical run.

Detective Pikachu is still currently showing in Colombia, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, and Slovenia, which have also helped the movie rake in another $7 million — although, as mentioned before, the movie's theatrical run is about to end soon, as Detective Pikachu will become available digitally next week.



The first-ever live-action Pokémon movie, “POKÉMON Detective Pikachu” stars Ryan Reynolds as the titular character in the first-ever live-action movie based on the iconic face of the global Pokémon brand—one of the world’s most popular, multi-generation entertainment properties and most successful media franchises of all time.

Detective Pikachu will become available digitally on the 23rd of July, and on Blu-ray and DVD on the 6th of August.
