Steven Spielberg is currently filming Ready Player One in Birmingham, England.
Fans have taken to social media to post set images where we see references/Easter Eggs to The Flash, Snarf of Thundercats, Gizmo of Gremlins and Jaws.
Ready Player One has a March 13, 2018 release and is an adaptation of the best-selling Ernest Cline novel of the same name directed by Spielberg starring Simon Pegg, Ben Mendelsohn, Hannah John-Kamen, Olivia Cooke, T.J. Miller, Mark Rylance and Tye Sheridan.
Book description:
In the year 2044, reality is an ugly place. The only time teenage Wade Watts really feels alive is when he’s jacked into the virtual utopia known as the OASIS. Wade’s devoted his life to studying the puzzles hidden within this world’s digital confines—puzzles that are based on their creator’s obsession with the pop culture of decades past and that promise massive power and fortune to whoever can unlock them.
But when Wade stumbles upon the first clue, he finds himself beset by players willing to kill to take this ultimate prize. The race is on, and if Wade’s going to survive, he’ll have to win—and confront the real world he’s always been so desperate to escape.
