Japanese actor and PrizmaX
lead singer Win Morisaki has joined the cast of Steven Spielberg's upcoming
adaptation of Ernest Cline's acclaimed sci-fi novel Ready Player One.
"In the year
2044, reality is an ugly place. The only time teenage Wade Watts (Sheridan)
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. When Wade stumbles upon the first clue,
he finds himself beset by players (Gunters) 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."
The 25-year-old
actor/singer will play Daito one-half of the Gunter tag-team along with his yet
uncast partner Shoto.
