Tron: Ares Wonders: What if AI Took on Kaiju-Sized Proportions?

News Tron: Ares Tron: Ares Wonders: What if AI Took on Kaiju-Sized Proportions? By Vanessa Armstrong | Published on April 7, 2025 Credit: Walt Disney Studios Comment 0 Share New Share Credit: Walt Disney Studios Tron: it’s not just inside your computer anymore! That’s the premise of the befuddling film Tron: Ares, the latest installment in the franchise that is Tron. In this latest movie, we see the digital world step outside the digital realm and into the big city, as evidenced by scenes in the recently released trailer. In it, we see Tron’s iconic cycles cut a police car in half, and some super-large, kaiju-esque creature thunder through skyscrapers as people look up in terror.Here’s the official logline of the film, which puts these moments in context: Tron: Ares follows a highly sophisticated Program, Ares, who is sent from the digital world into the real world on a dangerous mission, marking humankind’s first encounter with AI beings. The movie is helmed by director Joachim Rønning, whose previous credits include Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, Maleficent, and Young Woman and the Sea. It stars Jared Leto, Greta Lee, Evan Peters, Hasan Minhaj, Jodie Turner-Smith, Arturo Castro, and Cameron Monaghan. Gillian Anderson also plays a part (and we have the good fortune to see a glimpse of her in this trailer), and Jeff Bridges also reprises his role as Kevin Flynn, the protagonist of the original 1982 film. The trailer teases an original score by Nine Inch Nails, if you were looking for further inklings on the vibe this film is going for. Tron: Ares downloads into theaters on October 10, 2025. Check out the trailer below. [end-mark] The post <i>Tron: Ares</i> Wonders: What if AI Took on Kaiju-Sized Proportions? appeared first on Reactor.
