"As previously reported, TRON: Legacy ended with Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), son of Kevin Flynn, preventing the digital world from bleeding into the real world, as planned by the Grid's malevolent ruling program, Clu. He brought with him Quorra (Olivia Wilde), a naturally occurring isomorphic algorithm targeted for extinction by Clu. Disney greenlit a third film in the franchise in October 2010, intended to pick up where Legacy left off"
"By 2020, the project had been revived and reimagined as a standalone reboot rather than a Legacy sequel, although the main AI, Ares, appeared in earlier (pre-reboot) versions of the script. One pandemic and a couple of Hollywood strikes later, the finished film is finally set to hit theaters this fall. Directed by Joachim Rønning, the film's blogline is succinct: " TRON: Ares follows a highly sophisticated Program, Ares, who is sent from the digital world into the real world on a dangerous mission,"
TRON: Ares arrives in theaters next month and its new trailer shows the titular program returning to the original 1984 Grid and encountering Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges). The film follows a sophisticated Program, Ares, sent from the digital world into the real world on a dangerous mission that marks humankind's first encounter with A.I. beings. The project was greenlit in 2010, cancelled by 2015, and revived as a standalone reboot by 2020 before pandemic and strike delays. Jared Leto stars as Ares, with Evan Peters, Greta Lee, and returning cast members including Jeff Bridges; Nine Inch Nails composed the soundtrack.
