"Tron: Legacy", the highly anticipated sequel to the 1982 film "TRON", is going to be a huge CGI extravaganza and will be breath taking to watch. Joe Kosinski, the director, and Disney showed some of the Pixar guys an early working cut of the film featuring Garrett Hedlund and Jeff Bridges. Some of those "Pixar" guys they revealed the footage too was John Lassetter, Brad Bird, Michael Arndt, and Ed Catmull.
Disney's intent to use there help was for them to beef up some of the scenes for re-shoots, and mainly because if there is anything Pixar is good at, it is: character, emotion and theme.
Michael Arndt and Brad Bird had re-wrote some scenes, which only took six days to do, and the original writers for the film, Adam Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, still were invovled at the time.
“Tron is very much Joe Kosinski’s vision, a vision which is thrilling to me and I hope is thrilling to the fans,” said Sean Bailey, Disney’s president of production. “What I give Joe and the filmmaking team immense credit for, is this was all born out of how do we give the fans the best movie we can. We were very fortunate that Pixar wanted to play a part in it.”
"Tron: Legacy" is set to blow your mind on December 17, 2010!
