It took 28 years to get Tron: Legacy after the primary Tron. So solely taking 13 to fifteen years for a Tron 3, that’s like nothing!
Fans who’ve been ready since 2010 for a 3rd Tron movie would possibly lastly be getting their want. It seems to be just like the venture, which has been teased on and off since Tron: Legacy was launched, might lastly be coming collectively. Tron: Legacy director (and Top Gun: Maverick filmmaker) Joseph Kosinski labored on a follow-up to his personal film for some time, after which actor Jared Leto — who supposedly loves Tron — acquired concerned. But thus far, there’s been no extra Trons to indicate for all that improvement work.
Now Variety studies that Disney is “back on track for a third Tron.” Leto remains to be hooked up to star, however this time as an alternative of Kosinski, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil filmmaker Joachim Rønning will direct.
In 2022, Kosinski defined that his proposed Tron 3 fell aside as a result of Disney grew to become fixated on the large franchises they acquired within the years after Tron: Legacy, specifically Star Wars and Marvel. “Once you’ve got those things under your umbrella,” Kosinski mentioned, “it makes sense that you’re going to put your money into a known property and not the weird art student with black fingernails in the corner — that was Tron.” The final time Leto publicly mentioned the venture again in March of 2022, he mentioned the movie was “getting closer and closer” and even revealed a tentative title: Tron: Ares.
The movie doesn’t have an official launch date but, however Disney has extra causes to proceed the franchise now in any case this time of inactivity: Their brand-new trip at Walt Disney World relies on the property. Tron: Lightcycle Run is a rollercoaster the place the automobiles are designed to appear to be the movie’s signature automobiles. The coaster opens in Florida on April 4, 2023. A brand new Tron film could be an ideal little bit of company synergy.
