TRON fans are understandably on edge. There has been no buzz about TRON 3 since August and the debut of the TRON Uprising mini-series doesn't happen until the spring. But, the die hard TRON fans dont really have much to fret about. Once the 10 part mini series has aired then the all new TRON Uprising series will become part of Disney XD's regular programming in the summer. You can pretty much bet that Disney's plans for TRON 3 will depend on how well Uprising is received.
There hasn't been much in the way of footage from the show, but an all new promotional ad currently airing on Disney XD gives us a little more. To be sure, there isn't much to the new TRON Uprising footage, but it's good to see something new and be reminded that the show is definitely on it's way.
The story focuses on an era of the “TRON” storyline that transpires after the popular 1982 feature film and before the story in Walt Disney Studios’ upcoming TRON: Legacy. Its impressive list of artists, animators, directors, producers and digital technicians includes executive producer/director Charlie Bean (“Robotboy,” “Samurai Jack,” and “Powerpuff Girls”); and consulting producers Edward Kitsis, Adam Horowitz (both screenwriters of TRON: Legacy / executive producers of “Lost”) and Justin Springer (co-producer of TRON: Legacy).
Produced by Disney Television Animation, the series follows Beck, a young program who becomes the unlikely leader of a revolution inside the computer world of The Grid. His mission is to free his home and friends from the reign of the villainous Clu and his henchman General Tesler. Beck will be trained by Tron – the greatest warrior the Grid has ever known. Tron will not only teach Beck the fighting skills he needs to challenge this brutal military occupation, but will be a guide and mentor to him as he grows beyond his youthful, impulsive nature into a courageous, powerful leader. Destined to become the new protector of the system, Beck adopts Tron’s persona and becomes the archenemy of Tesler and his oppressive forces.
TRON:UPRISING will begin airing on the Disney XD channel during the Summer of 2012 – showcasing an impressive voice cast.
