Steven Spielberg’s ‘Ready Player One’ gets lead actor

Steven Spielberg’s adaptation of Ernest Cline’s Ready Player One gets it lead star in Tye Sheridan. Sheridan has been a bit low-key in terms of roles but we’re sure you’ll get to see more of him soon as he’s set to play the young Cyclops in X-Men: Apocalypse. For this adaptation he’ll be playing Wade a.k.a. Parzival. He joins Olivia Cooke as Art3mis and Ben Mendelsohn as Nolan Sorrento.

Ready Player One is set in the near future where everyone is connected to a virtual reality called the OASIS. When its creator dies, there comes up a Willy Wonka-esque quest for control of the company. Parzival and Art3mis are among a number of people who dedicate their lives to trying to become the owners of OASIS. The movie is scheduled to be released on March 30, 2018.
