film rights 电影改编权

On the heels of Pokemon Go fever, Legendary has closed a deal for the film rights for the iconic Japanese property.

传奇影业紧跟Pokemon Go游戏热潮，签下该游戏的电影版权。

Legendary and The Pokemon Co. on Wednesday announced that they will launch the first Pokemon live-action film franchise based on Detective Pikachu, a new character in the Pokemon universe.

传奇影业与Pokemon公司20日宣布将联合推出Pokemon系列真人电影，影片将讲述Pokemon系列新角色侦探皮卡丘的故事。

Pokemon Go是日本任天堂公司今年推出的一款增强现实游戏（augmented reality game, AR game），一经发布便迅速蹿红，占领了安卓和苹果应用商店下载榜首位。

传奇影业购买该游戏电影改编权（film rights）的动作其实在4月份就已经开始，影片的具体情节（details on the plot）和人物故事（story of the characters）目前仍处于保密阶段（being kept under wraps）。
