The VR-pocalypse is on the way guys, Simon Pegg said so.

Pegg appeared as a guest on The Late Show on Wednesday to talk about the upcoming Spielberg film Ready Player One. The film takes place in 2044, where virtual reality has become super-advanced.

Pegg thinks that by 2044, we could see technology as it is portrayed in the film. "In 2044 I think we could be in a place where you go into a virtual world," said Pegg.

First we need to sort out the problem with VR causing nausea, he says, "then we can live in the fake world."
