Tye Sheridan Lands Lead in READY PLAYER ONE

Tye Sheridan to star in Ready Player One
"X-Men: Apocalypse" actor Tye Sheridan has joined the cast of Steven Spielberg's "Ready Player One". The sci-fi adventure based on Ernest Cline's novel is being developed by Warner Bros with Cline himself writing the script.

The story takes place in the year 2044 in a world that has become such a mess that the only escape people have is within a vritual reality universe called OASIS that acts as both video game and social network. Sheridan is set to star as Wade Watts, a teenager who spends most of his time inside OASIS. His life radically changes when he uncovers the first clue in an Easter Egg hunt initiated by the virtual universe's creator upon his death. Wade's own survival is at risk as other players will stop at nothing to get their hands on the ultimate prize.

The cast also includes Olivia Cooke ("Bates Motel") as Art3mis, a fellow player and blogger who Watts has a crush on, and Ben Mendelsohn ("Rogue One") as the villain Nolan Sorrento.

"Ready Player One" opens in theaters on March 30th, 2018.
