Pokemon is a series that can be enjoyed by anyone, regardless of age. The new Detective Pikachu film essentially maintains that tradition. Ryan Reynolds did try to push those boundaries, however.

Speaking with ComicBook.com, the Detective Pikachu voice actor said that he did record some lines that “would come out a little PG-13, bordering on Rated R.” Ultimately though, this content “didn’t make it.”

Reynolds said:

“A whole bunch of us took passes on the script. I also took a pass on the script. We all got to kind of shape it the way we wanted. I got to make sure that the voice sort of worked the way I think could work for me. Inevitably I’m at the mercy of the filmmakers.” “But it’s motion capture, so it’s all imagination. You go into a room, I’m alone basically…and then it’s just throwing like 800 versions of any joke or any moment up against a wall and leaving it to some poor editor to sort of figure out…Some things would come out a little PG-13, bordering on Rated R. That stuff didn’t make it.” “The great thing about this world is that you can be totally edgy and totally push it, and still stay within the boundaries of a movie that you can take little kids to and adults. That was the trick.”
