ScreenRant: Jared Leto says that he is “a super fan of Tron" and that he is “working hard” on the film with Disney

In the five years since Leto has been linked to Tron 3, the movie didn't really start to make much progress until 2020, when Disney re-entered the film into development. It was shortly after this that Garth Davis (Lion) was announced as Tron 3's director. Leto seemingly revealed the sequel's title in celebration of the announcement, as a since-deleted tweet referred to the movie as Tron: Ares. Despite the star then teasing his physical transformation to lead the sci-fi sequel movie, there hasn't been any significant update on where the movie stands for more than a year.

As audiences wait for Tron 3, Leto is now out promoting Sony's Morbius ahead of its theatrical release on April 1. Screen Rant had the opportunity to talk to the Morbius star as part of the press tour, and the conversation eventually included a question about the status of Tron 3. Leto can't say much about the project beyond sharing his enthusiasm to eventually make the movie. However, he does offer a promising Tron 3 update in the process that teases more news might be on the horizon:

I'm a super fan of Tron, and we are working hard on Tron with our incredible partners at Disney. Just an amazing group of creative people. We're getting closer. We're getting closer and closer, and who knows? Something may be [coming] sooner than later.

I'm good, fam.

If I want a Tron 3, I want a continuation of Legacy with Hedlund and Wilde, not Jared fucking Leto.

 

[Indelible]

Jared Leto is the last person I want in a Tron movie.

[Fuchs]

I wish this dude would just go back to making music that sounds like the first two 30 Seconds to Mars albums.

[Soap NickTavish]

Eww, not with Leto. Pass.

 

[OberstKrueger]

I care less about Leto being in it and more about making sure Daft Punk comes back for the music. Their soundtrack was the glue that held Legacy together.

 

[Deleted member 27921]

Jared Leto, you can retire, my man. Just disappear somewhere. it'll be fine.

 

[Mario_Bones]

Is he even a box office draw? I don't know anyone who can stand him

[Scorpion Soldier]

Nah, without Hedlund/Wilde and Cillian Murphy I'll pass.

 

[AYZON]

Tron without Wilde and Daft Punk but with Jared Leto. Thats a hard no.

 

[I_love_potatoes]

Jared Leto is the last person I want in a Tron movie.

I mean, he's the last person I want in ANY movie to be honest. Such an overrated actor.

 

[hydruxo]

New Tron movie? Hell yeah.

SERIOUSLY... they have the perfect antagonist set up with Cillian Murphy in Tron Legacy as Dillinger Jr for a third film. WHY ARE THEY GOING WITH LETO FFS.

 

[astro]

God I wish we got a proper sequel with the same characters.

Tron Legacy is legitimately fucking awesome.

Next week in news magazines

Jared Leto announces live action Savior of the Earth film.

Spoiler

 

[Skel1ingt0n]

This shot lives in my head and I think back to it weekly:

If I don't get more Olivia Wilde in Tron 3 then I don't want Tron 3.

 

[bangai-o]

Okay. Someone explain the hate for Jared Leto on this forum.

 

[mikeamizzle]

Can they just finally finish building the fucking Tron coaster in Orlando one of these years?

 

[TripleBee]

I like Jared Leto as an actor, there are dozens of us.

 

[Chaos Legion]

He literally runs an abusive sex cult or something

In the past 2 years, he's been cast in movies by Warner Bros, Universal, MGM, Sony and now Disney.

Like...there has truly got to be something behind the divergence of the internet's hatred of him and Hollywood continuing to cast him in prominent roles.

 

[Osan912]

He must have like singer/ spacey connections. I thought he would go down like Franco. I guess not.

 

[Kapryov]

Okay. Someone explain the hate for Jared Leto on this forum.

Well, besides the creepy stuff already mentioned there's also this (now deleted?) tweet

 

[UnholySpectacle]

What happened to him playing the villain and bringing Sam and Quorra back?

Damn I love Tron but this sounds like a shit sandwich.

 

[Kommodore]

I want Tron 3 so bad I'm willing to be open about Leto being in it. As long the creative team behind it is good, it's possible they make it really hard for Leto to ruin it.
