A film that divides opinions, there are those who love it but there are also those who don't see much need…. But the fact is, the film released in 2018 was a huge success at the box office, going on to gross over US$ 582 million at the box office. Undeniable comparisons with the original work, the book of the same name written by Ernest Cline, released in bookstores in 2011.
Such was the success of the film, of course the people at Warner would want a sequel to the film, but the first film had ended well closed, a complete film, with a beginning, middle and end without the need for a sequel. But the game has turned! That's because a sequel to the book was released exactly a month ago, called Player Number 2. And with that, questions began to arise about a possible sequel to the movie. And who confirmed that the movie The Number 1 Player will get a sequel, and that it is already in development was the author of the book, Ernest Cline.
The Author also stated that he wants a good part of the team to return for the sequel. But it is not yet known who will return or not, a possible date, or who will be in charge of the direction, or if he will be a new director or if Steven Spielberg will resume the role. Check out Ernest Cline's statement:
It's in the early stages of production right now, especially considering Hollywood is in something of a limbo. But I can say that the experience of making the first movie made everyone have a great time.

The Number 1 Player
The movie The Number 1 Player, opened in theaters in 2018 under the direction of the legendary Steven Spielberg and was a success grossing over US$ 582 million at the box office. Based on the book Ready Player One released in 2011 written by Ernest Cline.
Set in the year 2045. With the world in chaos and on the verge of collapse, people have found refuge in the OASIS, the virtual reality universe created by James Halliday. That when he dies, he leaves his fortune to the first person to find the treasure he hid in the OASIS, which has given rise to a competition in which everyone participates. When a young man named Wade Watts decides to participate in the competition, he takes a difficult path through the world of OASIS in the competition to become the Number 1 Player!
The sequel, Player Number 1, will most likely take a while to be released. Since the data between the first book and the first film were almost 1 decade... It is very likely that the sequel will also take a while.
Anyway, what did you think of the first movie, did you like it, did you think it was bad...? And while the sequel what do you expect from it, do you think one is unnecessary or are you looking forward to it? Comment!
