Forty-two years after audiences first plunged into the shimmering neon circuitry of Tron, and over a decade after Tron: Legacy revived the franchise with sleek, high-gloss bravado, Tron: Ares arrives like a signal from another world — one both hauntingly familiar and thrillingly new. Directed by Joachim Rønning, the film achieves what so few franchise revivals dare: it deepens the mythos without drowning in nostalgia. The result is a stunning, ambitious, and surprisingly emotional continuation that cements Tron as one of Disney’s most visionary science-fiction sagas.
