Update to the post I made earlier:
Disney Channel is developing a “Tron” animated series to follow the upcoming theatrical release of “Tron: Legacy.”
The news was part of Disney’s “upfront” presentation to media buyers and clients, which included a preview of the “Tron” series. Geared toward kids age 6-14, the plan is to precede “Tron” with another project, a 10-part “Tron” micro-series premiering in fall 2011 on Disney XD, its cable channel targeted at young boys.
Gary Marsh, entertainment president and chief creative officer of Disney Channels Worldwide, also offered a glimpse of “Legacy,” which is at such an early juncture in the development process that only stills were available.
“Tron is another example of how we can take advantage of the intellectual property that the studio unit pays tens, if not hundreds, of millions to develop and market,” Marsh said Tuesday.
The “Tron” projects represent a CGI-refresh of Disney’s 1982 theatrical, with “Legacy” expected to be released in December.
