Details Leak on Third ‘TRON’ Movie

Though Disney is yet to confirm any of these, buzz is building up that fans of “TRON: Legacy” will get a first look at the third film with the DVD of the film, while more details on the script are leaking online.

As fans must already know “Legacy,” marketed by Disney as a stand-alone film, is actually a sequel to the 1982 cult-classic “TRON,” which sees the creation of The Grid, where Flynn will remain trapped.

Word of a third film first got out before the release of “Legacy” in December last year, with several well placed sources saying Disney had already commissioned a script and was looking at possibilities to avoid conflicting schedules.

Now, several e-zines claim to have it from very reliable sources not only that the third film will be made but also that fans will be given a first look at it with the release of the “Legacy” DVD this April.

Both Ain’t It Cool News and Bleeding Cool say their spies are confirming that a teaser trailer of the third “TRON” film will be included on the DVD, with the latter saying it lasts about 2.51 minutes and will run as “Disc Roars.”

Furthermore, details on the plot have also started to emerge online, as IGN Movies sums it up.

The good news here would be that Cillian Murphy, who was seen only briefly in the beginning of “Legacy,” will get more screentime in the threequel – as a villain, of course.

At the same time, word has it that the third film would take place more in the outside world and not in The Grid, though how that would tie in with the original is yet to be seen.

“There will be a teaser trailer (of sorts) for the threequel on the forthcoming Blu-ray release of Tron: Legacy 3D. Citing someone who worked on the shoot for the home video extra, AICN says there were at least three different scenes filmed before Thanksgiving 2010,” IGN reports.

Info leaked on the trailer is also very accurate like, which could mean the teaser is actually real, the e-zine further argues.

“The first scene involves Bruce Boxleitner (as Alan Bradley) and Dan Shor (as Ram), the second sees Quorra (Olivia Wilde) at ENCOM, while the third and sees Cillian Murphy as Dillinger Jr. opposite his dad, played by the first Tron’s villain, David Warner! The two apparently reveal that their schemes are under way,” IGN says.

Apparently, Jeff Bridges’ Flynn also returns to the third film, though in what manner that will be possible given the ending of “Legacy” still remains to be seen.
