🌀 A New Chapter in the TRON Legacy
After more than a decade since TRON: Legacy thrilled fans with its groundbreaking visuals, TRON: Ares pushes the story into bold new territory. The film follows Ares (played by Jared Leto), a highly advanced digital program sent from the virtual Grid into the real world on a mission that could forever change the relationship between humans and artificial intelligence.
This marks the first TRON story to take place largely in the real world, promising a fresh perspective while keeping the series’ signature cyber-aesthetic and pulse-pounding energy.
⭐ A Stellar Cast
Joining Jared Leto are Greta Lee (Past Lives), Evan Peters (X-Men: Days of Future Past), Jodie Turner-Smith, Cameron Monaghan, Hasan Minhaj, and the legendary Jeff Bridges, returning as Kevin Flynn. The film’s score is composed by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross (Nine Inch Nails), whose music will bring an intense, emotional edge to this futuristic odyssey.
💫 A Visual and Sonic Spectacle
TRON: Ares is designed to be a visual and auditory feast. From cutting-edge light cycle chases to breathtaking virtual landscapes, it continues the franchise’s tradition of innovation. The film was shot by acclaimed cinematographer Jeff Cronenweth (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo), ensuring a sleek, immersive look tailor-made for premium formats like IMAX and Dolby Cinema.
