In a world where David Fincher can make a movie about Facebook, and Ben Affleck can do the same about Air Jordans, why not one about a crazy-fun and challenging Russian Nintendo game? Well, come closer, comrades, do we have a trailer for you!
“Tetris” tells the unbelievable story of how one of the world’s most popular video games found its way to avid players around the globe. Henk Rogers (Taron Egerton) discovers Tetris in 1988, and then risks everything by traveling to the Soviet Union, where he joins forces with inventor Alexey Pajitnov (Nikita Efremov) to bring the game to the masses. Based on a true story, “Tetris” is a Cold War–era thriller on steroids, with double-crossing villains, unlikely heroes, and a nail-biting race to the finish.
We’ve been a huge fan of Apple+ properties lately. Ted Lasso will forever be my spirit animal, Finch was incredible, and now we’re really looking forward to this!!
Taron Egerton stars in a new Apple Original Film inspired by the true story of how one man risked his life to outsmart the KGB and turn Tetris into a worldwide sensation.
The film is directed by Jon S. Baird and written by Noah Pink and “Tetris” will premiere globally on Apple TV+ on March 31, 2023.
