Variety cites unnamed sources, and a spokesperson for Disney Interactive declined comment, but this isnât that hard to imagine. Tron is, after all, about video games, and the trailer for Tr2n (not a typo) sent a geeked-up Comic-Con crowd into a Wendy Carlos-induced frenzy. In other words, a natural tie-in delivered to a ravenous and captive audience.
When, though? The film isnât scheduled for release until 2011. âIâll go out on a limb and say Disney wonât release it in the Winter, since that means the game will have a solid amount of production time,â writes Ben Fritz. Wait a minute, rumor of a tie-in for a video game-based movie releasing two years from now. Gee, thanks for the confidential tip. Well, there it is anyway.
