We have all played Tetris and found ourselves addicted to the game. But did you know the story behind how it became a global juggernaut is more interesting than the game itself? Because of that, Apple is turning the tale into a movie.
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 know how it ends, and I can’t wait to see how it began when it starts streaming on Apple TV+ on March 31st.
