READY PLAYER ONE Actor Tye Sheridan in Talks to Star in George Clooney's THE TENDER BAR

Tye Sheridan, who had the starring role in the 2018 film Ready Player One, is in talks to join George Clooney’s upcoming film The Tender Bar. Clooney is set to direct from a script written by William Monahan (The Departed), based on the bestselling memoir by J.R. Moehringer.

The story is based on the author’s time he spent searching for unlikely father figures among the patrons at his uncle’s bar in Long Island. Sheridan is making a deal to play Moehringer, while Ben Affleck is set to play his Uncle Charlie. Clooney has not yet said whether he will play a role in the film, but it’s likely, as he usually does appear in the films he directs.

I really like Sheridan as an actor, and I think he would be a great addition to this cast. I look forward to seeing this story be told.
