August 30, 2001 — A story on Coming Soon!

"Steven Lisberger, the director and co-writer of the 1982's "Tron," told the Hollywood Reporter that he is working on a third draft of the sequel's script, after Richard Jeffries wrote a draft. As in the original film, Lisberger will blend live-action with CGI in "Tron 2.0".

"I have several characters that will be completely digital creations, but I'm not trying to replace actors," Lisberger said. "I'd like the sequel to retain the artistic look of the original, while employing more cutting-edge technology and introducing a new cast of characters. We could do a movie that looks like the original today for $200,000." Lisberger has several ideas for the "Tron" film, which he believes could be revived as a new franchise for Disney. He said the light cycles will definitely be back. "
