The film, which features Ryan Reynolds as the voice of Pikachu, is expected to make $50 million to $55 million at the North American box office this weekend, according to analysts.

It's also more family-friendly with a PG rating and shorter run time."Detective Pikachu" clocks in at an hour and 44 minutes while"Endgame" is three hours long.
