According to THR, Deadpool and Silicon Valley actor T.J. Miller has joined Steven Spielberg’s upcoming adaptation of Ernest Cline’s Ready Player One.
Miller has been cast as i-R0k, “an annoying troller in the online forums of the game” that humans of the near-distant future practically live in. i-R0k had a small, but important role to play in the book, and I’m curious to see if they’ll expand it at all to give Miller a chance at some of his signature comedic improv.
Ready Player One is currently gearing up for production, and stars Tye Sheridan (X-Men: Apocalypse), Olivia Cooke (Me and Earl and the Dying Girl), Simon Pegg (Star Trek Beyond), Ben Mendelsohn (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) and Mark Rylance (Bridge of Spies, The BFG).
