Set a few decades in the future, Ready Player One follows a teenager named Wade Watts who escapes from the difficulties in the real world by playing in OASIS as Parzival. Wade is among the many players who is looking for the Easter egg that OASIS creator Hames Halliday hid in the virtual world before his death, and whoever finds the Easter egg will win Halliday's fortune. In order to find the Easter egg, Wade will need to solve a variety of puzzles that are themed around 1980s pop culture, so if you read the original book and got a kick out of these challenges, you can look forward to a few new ones being thrown at the main protagonist and the other "gunters" (egg hunters). Ready Player One's main cast also includes Tye Sheridan as Wade, Olivia Cooke as Art3mis, Simon Pegg as Ogden Morrow, Lena Waithe as Aech, Win Morisaki as Daito, Philip Zhao as Shoto and Hannah John-Kamen.
