Bridges, who played Flynn in both “Tron” and “Tron: Legacy,” joins an impressive cast that includes Leto as Ares (a program sent on a perilous mission from the digital world), Greta Lee, Evan Peters, Hasan Minhaj, Jodie Turner-Smith, Arturo Castro, Cameron Monaghan, and Gillian Anderson.

“Tron: Ares” is being helmed by director Joachim Rønning (“Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales,” “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil”). The script comes from the pens of Jesse Wigutow and Jack Thorne, while a team including Sean Bailey, Jeffrey Silver, Justin Springer, Leto, and others serve as producers.
