Tetris (2023)

Tetris is the nigh unbelievable retelling of the true story behind Tetris, the video game that swept the world up in the late 80s and early 90s. Taaron Egerton stars as Henk Rogers, a man who discovers the game and heads to the Soviet Union to meet with its inventor, AlexeyPajitnov (Nikita Efremov) to turn the game into a worldwide phenomenon. However, Henk soon realizes that even something as simple as trying to get a video game published can be dangerous during a Cold War between the U.S. and U.S.S.R.
