READY PLAYER ONE Movie Reveals First Official Still Of Olivia Cooke As ART3MIS
The SDCC trailer for Steven Spielberg’s Ready Player One movie stunned audiences and viewers unfamiliar with the Ernest Cline's ode to the '80s. However, it didn't feature one key character...
Art3mis was glimpsed from afar in the SDCC trailer for Ready Player One but a new still from Empire Magazine has revealed an up close look at the katana-wielding, Chuck Taylor wearing badass of the OASIS. She's played by 23-year-old actress Olivia Cooke, who recently turned heads in Me and Earl and the Dying Girl and Bates Motel.
Art3mis is both a staunch ally and rival of Tye Sheridan's Parzival for the first of three keys that will open the door to Halliday's Easter egg. Cooke also provided a brief quote to Empire which reads, "It felt like pure adventure. It was Willy Wonka, it was Indiana Jones. When you’re a kid wanting to be an actor, the idea of working with [Spielberg] sounds absurd. It was surreal."
In 2045, the planet is on the brink of chaos and collapse, but people find salvation in the OASIS, an expansive virtual reality universe created by James Halliday. When Halliday dies, he promises his immense fortune to the first person to discover a digital Easter egg that's hidden somewhere in the OASIS. When young Wade Watts joins the contest, he finds himself becoming an unlikely hero in a reality-bending treasure hunt through a fantastical world of mystery, discovery and danger.
