In Steven Spielberg‘s adaptation of Ernest Cline‘s futuristic Ready Player One, Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan) “searches for an easter egg in a virtual reality game, the discovery of which will lead him to inherit a valuable fortune in a world torn by an energy crisis” blah blah. But before anything triumphant can happen, Wade has to grapple with bad-buy Nolan Sorrento, played by HE’s own Ben Mendelsohn. Plus Spielberg mainstay Mark Rylance in a significant dual role. Screenplay by Cline and Zak Penn.
