"We're back in the Grid, baby. Some fifteen years after Tron: Legacy, the long-awaited third installment in the series is finally realized with Tron: Ares. Directed by Joachim Rnning, Ares sets the stage for two rival tech billionaires to race for the "permanence code," which grants programs from the digital worldlike a 3D printed Jared Leto, starring as the title hero Aresmore than 29 minutes of time in our real world of flesh and blood."
"Though Tron: Ares is just the third movie in a 43-year-old film franchise, the movie is intent on grounding the past into the bedrock of a sleek near-future. This includes a massive teaser for a fourth movie tucked away in the middle of the end credits. (It's a Disney tentpole we're talking about here. What else would you expect?) While it's anyone's guess if Tron will get a fourth movie any time soon,"
"Warner also starred in the '82 film as Sark, who appears in the Grid (then housed on ENCOM's servers) with Ed Dillinger's exact likeness. Sark serves as the second-in-command muscle for the Master Control Program (MCP). You'll recall that at the end of the original Tron, Sark was killedsorry, derezzedafter Tron (Bruce Boxleitner) bests him in combat and ends the MCP's stranglehold over the system."
Tron: Ares returns to the Grid fifteen years after Tron: Legacy under Joachim Rnning's direction. Two rival tech billionaires race to secure the "permanence code," allowing digital programs limited, embodied time in the real world, exemplified by a 3D-printed Jared Leto as Ares with over 29 minutes of human existence. Evan Peters portrays Julian Dillinger, grandson of ENCOM villain Ed Dillinger, while David Warner's Sark reappears in the Grid as the MCP's enforcer. The film anchors franchise history in a sleek near-future and includes a mid-credits teaser suggesting the possibility of a fourth installment.
