Ready Player One is set to hit theatres in March which means that the marketing is beginning to ramp up. Warner Brother’s has released several trailers for the film so far and they just dropped another one. The film deemed an ‘odyssey of pop culture’ look’s like it should be a pretty fun ride. However, my biggest question while watching all of the trailers thus far has been how the hell Warner Brothers acquired all of the rights to use the references that appeared in Ernest Cline’s book. Talk about a headache.
We’ve attached the trailer and official synopsis for ‘Ready Player One‘ below.
‘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’.
