We have a new trailer and poster for Steven Spielberg’s adaptation of Ernest Cline’s Ready Player One and it’s pretty awesome…
Especially Tye Sheridan’s right leg in that poster. Seriously, check out the length of that leg (we fixed it in the image below)!
All joking aside, we’re assured there’s lots of fun easter eggs in the trailer and poster and we’ve found quite a few… Harley Quinn, Deadpool, Overwatch, Akira, Bugaloo from Tank Girl, The Iron Giant… man, there’s so much awesome in here – prepare to put the man hours in looking around in here!.
You can also check out the original trailer from SDCC (here).
The film is set in 2045, with the world on the brink of chaos and collapse. But the people have found salvation in the OASIS, an expansive virtual reality universe created by the brilliant and eccentric James Halliday (Mark Rylance). When Halliday dies, he leaves his immense fortune to the first person to find a digital Easter egg he has hidden somewhere in the OASIS, sparking a contest that grips the entire world. When an unlikely young hero named Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan) decides to join the contest, he is hurled into a breakneck, reality-bending treasure hunt through a fantastical universe of mystery, discovery and danger.
Joining Tye Sheridan (X-Men: Apocalypse, Mud), Olivia Cooke (Me and Earl and the Dying Girl, Bates Motel), Ben Mendelsohn (Rogue One – A Star Wars Story, Bloodline) and T.J. Miller (Deadpool, Silicon Valley), with Simon Pegg (the Star Trek movies, the Mission: Impossible movies) and Oscar winner Mark Rylance (Bridge of Spies, Dunkirk) round out the cast. Directed by Spielberg from a screenplay by Zak Penn and Ernest Cline, Ready Player One was produced by Spielberg, Donald De Line, Kristie Macosko Krieger and Dan Farah; with Adam Somner, Daniel Lupi, Chris DeFaria and Bruce Berman as executive producers.
