🌐 A New Grid. A New Threat.

As humanity comes face-to-face with A.I. in the flesh for the first time, questions of consciousness, ethics, and control become more urgent than ever. Is Ares a savior—or a threat?

🎬 Behind the Code
Joachim Rønning (of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales) takes the helm as director, promising both thrilling spectacle and philosophical depth. The script, penned by Jesse Wigutow and Jack Thorne, builds on the legacy of Tron while forging a standalone narrative perfect for newcomers and longtime fans alike.
Originally delayed due to the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, filming wrapped in May 2024 in Vancouver. To fuel the film's sonic landscape, none other than Nine Inch Nails are composing the score—bringing the perfect mix of electronic edge and industrial emotion to the TRON universe.
🌀 Legacy, Reboot, Revolution
Tron: Ares isn’t just a sequel—it’s a spiritual successor and a conceptual evolution. From its roots in 1982's groundbreaking original to the visually stunning Tron: Legacy in 2010, the franchise has always been ahead of its time. Now, in an age where AI headlines dominate the real world, Tron: Ares feels more relevant—and more thrilling—than ever.
With visual effects poised to push boundaries once again and a timely narrative about the real-world implications of artificial life, this film promises to deliver spectacle, soul, and a lot of neon.
