Parzival becomes Clark Kent in new Ready Player One trailer

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

READY PLAYER ONE imagines a world where you can be literally anything you want to be. You can be a massive gorilla, an ass-kicking robot, a giant orc, and even Clark Kent. No, not Superman, just Clark Kent. You know, with the glasses, slicked-over hair, casual suit and abundance of awkwardness. Our leading hero Wade Watts/Parzival (Tye Sheridan) find himself donning the dorky glasses in the new trailer for the movie, which puts all the focus on all the different types of characters you can be when you step into the Oasis. 

Here is the plot synopsis:

The film is set in 2045, with the world on the brink of chaos and collapse. But the people have found salvation in the OASIS, an expansive virtual reality universe created by the brilliant and eccentric James Halliday (Mark Rylance). When Halliday dies, he leaves his immense fortune to the first person to find a digital Easter egg he has hidden somewhere in the OASIS, sparking a contest that grips the entire world. When an unlikely young hero named Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan) decides to join the contest, he is hurled into a breakneck, reality-bending treasure hunt through a fantastical universe of mystery, discovery and danger.

READY PLAYER ONE arrives March 30.
