Back in May, it was revealed that Walt Disney Pictures has decided to pull the plug on the third TRON movie, despite the fact that director Joseph Kosinski and TRON: Legacy stars Garrett Hedlund and Olivia Wilde were both on board to return. This left a lot of fans disappointed, but according to Hedlund, TRON 3 may not be “totally dead.”
“I haven’t been told it’s totally dead,” Hedlund told Comic Book during a promotional interview for his new movie Pan. “Ever since we did Legacy, we knew that to have another story follow it up, it had to be concrete and exciting. Disney needed to have the right story to go forward. I think it was going to introduce some things that were as exciting as Legacy was and then some, though. Who knows, maybe it’ll be like Legacy was to the first Tron, it’ll be 30 years, and I’ll have my young Flynn CGI face, who knows? But they could do it anytime from now, and I would of course jump back in. Something like that could be quite fun, though!”
