Steven Spielberg will direct Ready Player One, based on the novel by Ernest Cline, for Warner Bros. Deadline.com noted that "a question arises about how they will bring a key element of the book's virtual world to life for the big screen. After all, it seems imperative for the audience to feel like they were dropped into the middle of a video game.... That kind of technology is just becoming available, and if these guys implement that, this could change the face of cinema."
