Fans of the “Tron” series have eagerly anticipated the release of the first trailer for “Tron: Ares,” a film that has been in development for over 15 years, even predating the release of 2010’s “Tron: Legacy.” While “Tron: Legacy” appeared to set the stage for a sequel, the new film does not seem to follow those narrative threads.
The trailer for “Tron: Ares” introduces audiences to a new, red grid and hints at elements from this digital realm crossing over into the real world, offering a fresh glimpse into the upcoming installment. Directed by Joachim Rønning, known for his work on “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales” and “Maleficent: Mistress of Evil,” the film aims to deliver a novel experience to longstanding fans of the franchise, fulfilling a long-awaited vision of the Grid invading the real world.
The cast of “Tron: Ares” includes Jared Leto, Greta Lee, Evan Peters, Hasan Minhaj, Jodie Turner-Smith, Cameron Monaghan, Gillian Anderson, and Jeff Bridges. The film is scheduled for release on October 10.
