No, really.

A Tetris movie will soon grace Apple TV+, telling the story of the fabled title’s creation.

“Taron Egerton stars in a new Apple Original Film inspired by the true story of how one man risked his life to outsmart the KGB and turn Tetris into a worldwide sensation,” Apple said alongside a new trailer.

Egerton will star as Henk Rogers, alongside Nikita Yefremov as Tetris creator Alexey Pajitnov and Togo Igawa as Nintendo President Hiroshi Yamauchi.

Tetris is directed by Jon S. Baird and written by Noah Pink.

Expect the Tetris movie from 31 March on Apple TV+. In the meantime, what do you make of the film?
