Based on the Nerdist article "Everything We Know About TRON: ARES," here is a summary:

  • Movie Title: Tron: Ares
  • What It Is: The third film in the Tron franchise.
  • Director: Joachim Rønning (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No TalesMaleficent: Mistress of Evil).
  • Lead Star: Jared Leto stars as Ares, the titular character.
  • Plot Focus: The film shifts focus from humans entering the digital world to a program, Ares, embarking on a dangerous mission from the digital world into the human world. It's described as humanity's first encounter with A.I. beings and explores the emergence of sentient AI.
  • Cast: Besides Leto, the cast includes Greta Lee (as a tech CEO and game developer), Evan Peters, Jodie Turner-Smith, Cameron Monaghan, and Sarah Desjardins. Jeff Bridges is reportedly not involved at this time.
  • Connection to Previous Films: While the third film, it's not expected to be a direct sequel continuing the immediate storylines of Sam Flynn or Quorra from Tron: Legacy. It seems to be more of a standalone story within the same universe, focusing on a new concept (AI entering our world).
  • Production Status: Filming began in Vancouver in January 2024 after delays due to industry strikes.
  • Visuals: The first official image shows Leto as Ares in a red-hued suit, distinct from the traditional blue or orange seen previously in the franchise.
  • Release Date: Disney has set the release date for October 10, 2025.
