There’s A Tetris Movie In The Works Starring Taron Egerton

We’ve had a LEGO movie. A Playmobil movie. A Sonic The Hedgehog movie. A LEGO Ninjago movie. Even a G.I. Joe movie. We knew a Tetris movie would be next.

Taron Egerton is set to star in a movie about the messy and complicated history of Tetris.

Tetris Movie In The Works Starring Taaron Egerton

Egerton gained worldwide recognition for starring as Gary “Eggsy” Unwin in the Kingsman franchise and for his portrayal of music legend Elton John in Rocketman. He is also the recipient of a Golden Globe Award and has been nominated for two British Academy Film Awards, a Grammy Award, and a Screen Actors Guild Award.

According to reports, the Tetris movie will be a biopic in which Egerton portrays video game designer Henk Rogers. The story will chronicle the complicated rights battle which ensued over the popular puzzle game in the late 1980s.

Henk was involved in a dispute over the game’s rights with several programming and software companies controlled by media mogul Robert Maxwell and his son Kevin. He ultimately secured the intellectual property rights to Tetris and shared them with its creator/designer Alexey Pajitnov. Until that point, Pajitnov had not received any credit or financial compensation for the game.

The news was first reported by entertainment columnist Baz Bamigboye, who shared the news on social media…

Jon S. Baird, who recently worked on the biopic Stan & Ollie, is set to take the helm as director. Leonard Blavatnik and Matthew Vaughn will serve as the film’s producers. Production is expected to begin in September, with the appropriate safety measures in place due to the global pandemic.
