After an accident forces Dr. Caster to become the guinea pig for his own experiment, he transfers his consciousness into a network where he quickly begins to evolve beyond anything he ever imagined. Now with this new app released by Warner Bros., you too can see what happens when you merge your physical presence with your digital one.

His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him. However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed—to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) and best friend Max Waters (Paul Bettany), both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can…but if they should. Their worst fears are realized as Will’s thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power, to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop him. Apps Viral Marketing Facebook AppJohnny DeppTranscendenceWarner Bros
