The galactic planetary census is approaching 250 planets, and these worlds possess an astonishing variety of physical and orbital characteristics. This wealth of data is in turn informing theories of the formation and evolution of planetary systems. In this talk, I will review current thinking on the core-accretion model for Jovian planet formation, and will look at how the theory can account for the range of systems that are observed. I will then talk about how the core accretion theory makes predictions for the eventual imaging of Jovian planets from the ground and space.
