Tron: Uprising is a new animated science fiction TV series that will air on the Disney XD channel in 2012. Tron: Uprising will be directed by Charlie Bean (Samurai Jack), Sean Bailey, and Joseph Kosinski, who helmed the recent Tron: Legacy feature film. The Tron: Uprising series is set between the original 1982 Tron movie and recently released Tron: Legacy. The Tron: Legacy DVD and Blu-ray releases, which are due on April 5th, will contain a preview of the Tron: Uprising series. Like the two Tron movies, Tron: Uprising is set inside the computer world of The Grid. A ten-part Tron: Uprising miniseries will debut on Disney XD during the first half of 2012 while the main series will bow in September of 2012. Tron: Uprising features a stellar vocal cast that includes Elijah Wood, Mandy Moore, Lance Hendriksen, Paul Reubens (Peewee Herman), Reginald Vel Johnson, and Bruce Boxleitner. The Tron: Uprising animated series should keep the franchise, which has spawned comics (from Marvel & Slave Labor), books, and games, viable for the next few years. |
