Disney has released the exciting first look at “TRON: Ares,” the highly anticipated, new instalment in the ground-breaking “TRON” franchise.

Now more than ever, it feels like the right time to return to the Grid.” “TRON: Ares” follows a highly sophisticated Program, 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.
The feature film stars Jared Leto, Greta Lee, Evan Peters, Hasan Minhaj, Jodie Turner-Smith, Arturo Castro, Cameron Monaghan, with Gillian Anderson.
