Steven Spielberg's upcoming film READY PLAYER ONE is a futuristic sci-fi adventure, but it also looks to be a glorious celebration of pop culture, especially of 1980s pop culture. As we pointed out back in July, the first trailer for the film contained such familiar sights as the BACK TO THE FUTURE DeLorean, CHRISTINE herself, and a two-gloved Freddy Krueger.
Now another trailer has arrived online, and this one adds another horror icon into the mix: killer doll Chucky, a.k.a. Charles Lee Ray. And during his brief appearance in this trailer, that little bastard is kicking some ass on a battlefield.
There's also a quick shot of King Kong jumping around in there.
Based on a novel by Ernie Cline, READY PLAYER ONE has the following synopsis:
In the near future, outcast teenager Wade Watts escapes from his bleak surroundings by logging in to the OASIS, a globally networked virtual utopia where users can lead idyllic alternate lives. When the eccentric billionaire who created the OASIS dies, he offers up his vast fortune as the prize in an elaborate treasure hunt. Along with gamers from around the world, Wade joins the adventure, and quickly finds himself pitted against powerful corporate foes and other ruthless competitors who will do anything, in the oasis or the real world, to reach the treasure first.
The film stars Tye Sheridan, Olivia Cooke, Ben Mendelsohn, Simon Pegg, Mark Rylance, T.J. Miller, Hannah John-Kamen, and Letitia Wright.
READY PLAYER ONE reaches theatres on March 30, 2018.
