January 18, 2002 — Cinescape recently spoke with 'Tron 2.0' writer/director Steven Lisberger who confirms that he is indeed actively working on the sequel, and is looking in an unexpected place for inspiration to the computer combat tale.
"I wrote the first two drafts an then Richard Jeffries was brought in and he did a rewrite," Lisberger said. "Hopefully we'll be looking at [the script] around the beginning of the year."
He also said he was looking to Joseph Conrad's "Hearts of Darkness" (book on which "Apocalypse Now" was based) for inspiration. "There are some Conradesque elements to it, having to do with the character of Jeff Bridges'." |
