Olivia Wilde and Garrett Hedlund are both logging back into Tron along with Tron Legacy director Joseph Kosinski in the third installment, which may or may not be called Tron Ascension.

Those who saw Tron Legacy (and there must be enough of you as the movie grossed $400 million worldwide and Disney have been looking to make this sequel since 2010) will know that the film ends with Hedlund’s Sam escaping the Grid and bringing Wilde’s Quorra with him.

Kosinski has confirmed that the new film will deal with the fallout from a program escaping the system, as well as the other reveal, Cillian Murphy’s appearance near the start as Edward Dillinger, AKA the son of Ed Dillinger, David Warner’s villain from the 1982 original. Whether or not he returns to the role is down to scheduling.

Tron: Ascension is set to shoot this Autumn in Vancouver for a probable release towards the end of 2016.
