#TRAILERCHEST: Steven Spielberg’s Ready Player One is going to be HUGE

The most exciting trailer you'll see this year.

Ready Player One

“I wish I’d grown up in the 1980s, like all my heroes.” This is Ready Player One.

Welcome to #TrailerChest, where we’re taking a sneak peek at latest trailer for Ready Player One.

Plot’s it all about?

Steven Spielberg is back in full-on future geek mode for this adaptation of Ernest Cline’s much loved and best-selling dystopian sci-fi novel.

Ready Player One is set in a dystopian future (is there any other kind?) where the Earth has been ravaged and the only escape is through a Virtual Reality headset that brings you into the world of the OASIS.

If that all sounds like something you’ve seen a thousand times, let us remind you that Steven Spielberg does not do things by default and he’s bringing us into a nostalgia-filled world of DeLoreans, Freddie Krueger, The Iron Giant and lots of other references to the 1980s.

This is going to be HUGE.

Starring: Tye Sheridan, Olivia Cooke, Ben Mendelsohn, Mark Rylance, Simon Pegg.

Directed by: Steven Spielberg

Release date: 2018
