Director Jospeh Kosinski confirms ‘Tron 3’ draft due in 2 weeks, working title is ‘TR3N’
While promoting his upcoming film, Oblivion, and talking at the WonderCon panel this weekend Joseph Kosinski gave fans an update on Tron 3 in a March 31 article on Collider.
“I think I’m two weeks away from getting the draft. This is a story we’ve been working on since 2009, so that’s four years now. I’m really excited about the idea that we have for it. I think it delivers on the promise that both Tron movies have made. It opens the movie up, in a way that I think is going to give it a much broader appeal. Whereas Tron really, ultimately, in the end, catered most to Tron fans, this idea broadens it some more, in really exciting ways. But, it’s all about the script and making sure that that story is compelling enough to get all of us back together. Those movies are hard to make. It’s a two-and-a-half to three-year journey. So, to go back in there and go back to the Grid, it’s going to have to be a pretty spectacular script. We’ve got a great writer on it, so we’ll see.”
Kosinski also confirmed that Tron 3 is just a working title.
“It has a working title, yeah. TR3N will be our code name. We have an idea, but nothing is set in stone yet. We have some exciting ideas.”
No details on a release date or cast have been made official at this point.
