Cast and Crew of Tetris

Tetris

It’s the perfect game

"Tetris" is a thriller that intricately blends elements of suspense, intrigue, and real-world drama, set against the backdrop of the Cold War era. Typical of the thriller genre, it features high-stakes tension, political maneuvering, and a race against time, but it distinguishes itself by focusing on the true story behind the iconic video game's global journey. Unlike conventional thrillers that may center on crime or espionage, "Tetris" delves into the complex web of international business, intellectual property battles, and cultural clashes behind the Iron Curtain. The narrative is driven by the character-driven conflict between Henk Rogers and the creators within the Soviet Union, adding depth and authenticity to the suspense. With Taron Egerton as Henk Rogers and Nikita Efremov as Alexey Pajitnov, the series humanizes the broader geopolitical tensions, offering a unique, real-life thriller that combines history, technology, and personal drama.
