Jeff Bridges is set to star in Tron Legacy, the sequel to the 1980’s film Tron.  The movie will focus on the son of Bridges’ character, Flynn.  Flynn’s son goes into the computer world shown in the original flick in order to find his father.  Olivia Wilde, Michael Sheen, and Bruce Boxleitner will also star in the sequel.

Bridges will be playing an older and younger version of Flynn in the film.  “It was challenging, in that I got a little taste of this new technology of acting what they call ‘in the volume’ and making movies without cameras,” said Bridges.  “It’s a completely different deal. That was kind of a challenge. It was great getting back with my old buddy, [original Tron director] Steven Lisberger, and Bruce Boxleitner.”

Joseph Kosinski is directing Tron Legacy.
