Clemente says a big driver behind the appeal of CTWC events is the carefree atmosphere the game fosters, something that's very different from attending a tournament for, say, a game centred on gun violence. "Unlike other e-sport communities that can be somewhat toxic, the Tetris community is supportive of each other," he claims. "I think ultimately that comes from the fact that you're really just playing a game against yourself. You're the one responsible for how you play and what you score. As far as the community [goes], we all speak the same language, Tetris, and that's what brings us together." Taron Egerton stated in a GQ Magazine Interview that the movie is going to be more Social Network than the Lego Movie. Today Apple Original Films unveiled the trailer for the highly anticipated thriller, “Tetris,” starring Taron Egerton.Rogers, Stein, and Kevin each separately meet with Belikov to negotiate the rights. Valentin Trifonov, head of the department of foreign trade of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, grows interested in the negotiations, and involves the KGB in making sure he can profit from Tetris' potential sales. Rogers explains to Belikov that he has only sold the computer rights to Stein, since the contract defines a "computer" as a device with a keyboard, monitor, and disc drive. I seem to recall that I haven't played a game of Tetris in the last 18 years, and what I knew of its conception was sparse in more ways than one, so part of me thought it might be interesting to see what a movie on the subject could offer. But as it turns out, one huge problem got in the way, and that was the unfortunate eagerness of its creators to turn that story into something akin to The Social Network. Over-embellishing a ''real'' story carries considerable risks when you fail to make it as grandiose as you seem to propose. The film premiered at the SXSW Film Festival on March 15, 2023. [13] It premiered on Apple TV+ on March 31, 2023. [14] According to a Samba TV research panel of 3.1 million smart television households who tuned in for at least one minute, Tetris drew in 88,000 viewers in its first two days.

Tetris received nominations for Best Music and Best Action/Thriller TrailerByte for a Feature Film at the 2023 Golden Trailer Awards.

Either people try to recreate them with 'modern' appeal and they fall flat, or they put a new coat of paint on an old game – hence all the video game 'remasters' and 'remakes' from the past several years. Tetris largely avoids this trap, because it doesn't need a big graphical upgrade to look and feel modern. The original design was so timeless, that the bones behind it will always stand up."

On being told that an American businessman can't obtain a visa, Rogers obtains a tourist visa to enter Moscow. He hires Sasha, a young and seemingly naïve Russian woman as his interpreter, and despite her warnings, enters the ELORG offices. On showing a copy of Tetris for Famicom to Nikolai Belikov, the ELORG chairman, he informs Rogers that his copy is "illegal," as ELORG has not released the video game rights to Rogers. A meeting is arranged to discuss the rights.

Is this the most effective way to tell this story?” is a question that repeats itself when watching these types of shows and films, one wondering if a documentary or even a long read might have been preferable. While almost two hours, Tetris is refreshingly self-contained and propulsively plot-heavy, avoiding the bloat that weighs down so many 10-part series that could have been told in one chunk. Our protagonist is Henk, a Dutch-born gaming entrepreneur raised in the US played by Taron Egerton, and we meet him in 1988 as he’s trying to sell a self-designed game at a convention. It’s a bust and his failure leads him to another stall where a Russian game called Tetris is being peddled. He’s immediately addicted and starts a quest to find out how he can become a part of its inevitable success.
