New Tron: Legacy Clip of Olivia Wilde Driving a Go-Kart

Walt Disney Pictures has released this clip of Olivia Wilde (Quorra) rescuing Garrett Hedlund (Sam Flynn) and taking him for a high-speed Light Runner ride.

Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), a rebellious 27-year-old, is haunted by the mysterious disappearance of his father Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), a man once known as the world's leading video-game developer. When Sam investigates a strange signal sent from the abandoned Flynn's Arcade—that could have only come from his father—he finds himself pulled into a world where Kevin has been trapped for 20 years. With the help of the fearless warrior Quorra (Olivia Wilde), father and son embark on a life-or-death journey across a visually-stunning digital universe—created by Kevin himself—which has become far more advanced with never-before-imagined vehicles, weapons, and landscapes and a ruthless villain who will stop at nothing to prevent their escape.

Tron: Legacy is scheduled for release on December 17, 2010 (US and Canada).

Official TRON LEGACY Posters Released

Disney released the official TRON: Legacy movie poster this week, and it is a great take on the original theatrical release poster from 1982.

Tron Legacy is one of the most anticipated movies of the year, which isn't surprising considering the massive amount of marketing material that Disney has put out for the film.

Anyway, you can check out the new posters (via Screen Rant) below and eagerly await until December 17 for this sequel to be released.

Walt Disney Releases TRON LEGACY Movie Poster

Walt Disney Pictures have dropped an international poster for the forthcoming Sci Fi 3D bonanza "Tron Legacy."  The poster features Jeff Bridges as the first film's hero Flynn, looking like he is in a Wachowski brothers movie. 

I remember the original "Tron" movie and back  in my day it was the coolest thing to come along since Ocean Pacific (OP) clothes.  Motorcycles and neon/black lights in 1982 were very cutting edge.  Plus, the video game (we had to leave home and play games in an arcade) was nothing short of mind blowing. 

I am very excited to see "Tron Legacy", but I am concerned that it may not translate to the younger demographic that it needs to capture to offset it's huge budget.  I grew up on "A-Team" television series and enjoyed the "A-Team" move, but we all know that movie flopped.   Hopefully, original special effects and very good 3D will carry this movie and allow it to find a younger fan base.  We'll wait and see.
