Tron Legacy Zooms Into Theaters this December

The 3D, high-tech adventure “TRON: Legacy” hits theaters December 17. Fans may already be familiar with “TRON,” but the story picks up 20 years later when Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund) is haunted by the mysterious disappearance of his father Kevin (Jeff Bridges), formerly the world’s leading video game developer. When Sam is inadvertently pulled into the cyber universe where Kevin’s been trapped for 20 years, father and son must escape a ruthless villain determined to keep them captive in a digital realm that’s become far more advanced and dangerous than anything Kevin ever created.

In a visually stunning virtual world unlike anything seen before on the big screen, both Jeff Bridges and Bruce Boxleitner (Alan Bradley/Tron) reprise their original “TRON” roles and are joined by Olivia Wilde (Quorra), Michael Sheen (Castor), James Frain (Jarvis), and Beau Garrett (Siren Jem). Directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Steven Lisberger (who co-wrote and directed the original 1982 “TRON”), the film’s futuristic score was written by the Grammy Award-winning electronic music duo Daft Punk.

One of the most highly anticipated films of the year, “TRON: Legacy” is filled with some pretty impressive firsts. It’s the first 3D movie to integrate a character with a fully digital head and body based upon an existing actor, which enabled filmmakers to create the younger version of Jeff Bridges’ character. In addition, some of the technological breakthroughs include extensive use of self-illuminated costumes, creating both molds and costumes via digital sculpture technology, and shooting the movie with 35mm lenses and full 35mm chip cameras.
