It looked for a while as though new entry Rampage , even given the draw of The Rock, might not be able to displace reigning movie A Quiet Place from the top of the box office. But, surprisingly for a film that features giant monsters smashing things, it squeaked past, earning $34.5 million, according to studio estimates. Worldwide, the new movie has taken in more than $148 million, and should be on course to be another success for Dwayne Johnson and director Brad Peyton. Still, A Quiet Place managed to score $32.6 million, so the horror thriller isn't exactly suffering. That film has taken nearly $100 million in just two weeks, and is past $151 million globally. That's despite new horror competition from Blumhouse's Truth Or Dare , which looked to target more of a teen audience. The film scared up $19 million for a third place launch, a fine opening given the movie's lower budget, but not quite the same level of success as, say, Get Out . Ready Player One was pu

Launching on Thursday to get a jump start on the Easter holiday weekend, Steven Spielberg's Ready Player One topped the box office across the pond. The movie earned $41.2 million across the three-day weekend, with a total of $53.2 million, according to studio estimates. Worldwide, the new movie took in $181.2 million, which is a solid start, and audiences seemed to like it, boding well for its future performance. Second place went to Tyler Perry's latest, the Taraji P. Henson-starring Acrimony . The revenge thriller took in $17.1 million. The new arrivals pushed Black Panther down a place to third, but the superhero pic still earned $11.2 million, passing $650 million in the States alone. Fourth was I Can Only Imagine on $10.7 million, while Pacific Rim Uprising , faced with new sci-fi competition, fell to fifth with $9.2 million. Globally, the situation was a lot healthier, as the movie has taken in a total of $231.9 million. Sherlock Gnomes was sixth, earning $7 mil

From filmmaker Steven Spielberg comes the science fiction action adventure “ Ready Player One ,” based on Ernest Cline’s bestseller of the same name. The film is set in 2045, with the world on the brink of chaos and collapse. But the people have found salvation in the OASIS, an expansive virtual reality universe created by the brilliant and eccentric James Halliday ( Mark Rylance ). When Halliday dies, he leaves his immense fortune to the first person to find a digital Easter egg he has hidden somewhere in the OASIS, sparking a contest that grips the entire world. When an unlikely young hero named Wade Watts ( Tye Sheridan ) decides to join the contest, he is hurled into a breakneck, reality-bending treasure hunt through a fantastical universe of mystery, discovery and danger.

THR is reporting Simon Pegg is in negotiations to join the cast of Steven Spielberg’s sci-fi film Ready Player One. Warner Bros. and Village Roadshow are behind the movie, which adapts the best-selling sci-fi novel by Ernest Cline and is in the midst of casting as it heads towards a June start. Tye Sheridan leads a cast that includes Olivia Cooke and Ben Mendelsohn in the story set in a virtual world called Oasis, in which a teenager (Sheridan) finds himself competing in a treasure hunt against ruthless foes after the game's founder dies and offers his fortune as the grand prize. Pegg will play Orgen Morrow, the co-creator of Oasis. Ready Player One is being produced by Spielberg via his Amblin Partners banner, along with Donald De Line, Kristie Macosko Krieger and Dan Farah. Pegg last co-starred in Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation and next reprises his role of Starfleet engineer Scotty in Star Trek Beyond, which he also co-wrote. Star Trek opens July 22. Please

With Ready Player One , Steven Spielberg plans to leave himself on the cutting room floor. The book by Ernest Cline is a thriller about a kid on a high-stakes treasure hunt through a virtual reality world created in a society that obsesses about ’80s pop culture – so Spielberg was all over the story even before he signed on to direct the film version. But with one exception. “The movie won’t have any of my films in it,” the director tells EW in a wide-ranging interview. “I’m not putting myself in this movie.” The film will still include an odyssey through Gen X nostalgia, but for now he intends to cut the book’s references to the Indiana Jones movies, and works he produced, like Back to the Future and Goonies . “They reference so many ’80s movies. I’m doing the whole pop culture thing. I’m just going to leave myself out of it,” he says, shaking his head. “I can’t do that. Too self-referential.” What hooked him on the story was Cline’s presentation of a world where everyo

Steven Spielberg is set to direct Ready Player One , the highly anticipated project based on the popular sci-fi book by Ernest Cline that takes place in a virtual world. What a coup for Warner Bros, which will bring it to the screen along with Village Roadshow. This is expected to be Spielberg’s next movie after The BFG. Ready Player One also marks the director’s return to Warner Bros after a 14-year absence. The last picture he directed there was A.I. Artificial Intelligence in 2001, which the grandmaster Stanley Kubrick had developed there. Before that, it was Empire Of The Sun (1987) and the critically acclaimed The Color Purple (1985). He also produced Gremlins and Goonies in the mid-1980s for the studio. “We are thrilled to welcome Steven back to Warner Bros,” said Greg Silverman, the studio’s President of Creative Development and Worldwide Production. “We had an historic series of collaborations in the 1980s and 1990s and have wanted to bring him back for years.” Spielb
