Disney is previewing ‘Tron: Ares’, the latest film in the ‘Tron’ universe directed by Joachim Ronning.
The trailer for Tron: Ares features Jared Leto and Jeff Bridges, with Leto portraying “a highly sophisticated Porgram, Ares, who is sent from the digital world into the real world on a dangerous mission, marking humankind’s first encounter with A.I. beings,” per an official synopsis. The film also stars Evan Peters, Greta Lee, Hasan Minhaj, Jodie Turner-Smith, Arturo Castro, Cameron Monaghan and Gillian Anderson.
As the preview opens, Peters’ character introduces Ares: “Since time began, man has gazed at the stars and he has wondered, ‘Am I alone?’ So much talk of A.I. and big tech today. Virtual worlds, what are they going to look like, when will we get there? Well folks, we’re not going there. They are coming here. I would like you to meet Ares, the ultimate soldier. He’s biblically strong, lightning fast, and supremely intelligent.”
Bridges, who also starred in Tron: Legacy (the 2010 sequel to the 1982 feature Tron), also appears as the teaser continues, stating: “A malfunctioning program who wants to live … Why is that?”
