Greta Lee, Jared Leto, and Jeff Bridges star in the third film in the Tron series, out October 10.

It’s a day fans of the Grid have been awaiting for years. The first trailer for Tron: Ares is here, a film that has been in the works for over 15 years . That’s even before the release of 2010’s Tron: Legacy , a cult classic in the making that set up a sequel which never happened, and does not appear to be this.

In the first trailer for Ares , it doesn’t look like the new film picks up those Legacy threads at all. Instead, we’re introduced to a new, red grid and, somehow, creations from that plane of existence crossing over into the real world. Here’s your first glimpse at Tron: Ares.



With the film out in October, this is a fairly early look. We’re not surprised the trailer doesn’t give away too much. But you can certainly tell that director Joachim Rønning (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil) is aiming to bring fans of the franchise not just something new, but something they’ve been dreaming about for decades: a full-on invasion of the Grid into the real world.

Tron: Ares stars Jared Leto, Greta Lee, Evan Peters, Hasan Minhaj, Jodie Turner-Smith, Cameron Monaghan, Gillian Anderson, and, of course, Jeff Bridges. It opens October 10..
