AICN got the scoop from someone reportedly on set for the shoot. He says there will be at least three scenes. One has Bruce Boxleitner playing Alan and Dan Shor playing Ram. Another scene shows Olivia Wilde as Quorra arriving at the ENCOM building, where she is mobbed by press as she claims to have just spoken to Kevin Flynn. Finally there were tests shot for some interaction between Ed Dillinger (played by David Warner in Tron) and his son (played by Cillian Murphy in a Tron Legacy cameo) “stating that everything is going as planned.” Harry said this “involved text screens,” so we may not see the actors, or even hear them.

But it’s that last bit that got me interested. Tron Legacy did a pretty good job of shutting down any interest I had in the series, but I know there are many who don’t feel the same way. And if there is a third film and David Warner is involved, especially with he and Cillian Murphy plotting some villainy, I’ll have to pay attention.

An April 11 release is reportedly scheduled for the UK version of Tron Legacy on DVD and Blu-ray, and there is no confirmed US release at this point. We’ll report more when info becomes available.

So does this mean Tron 3 is really happening? As Harry says in his piece, this stuff was shot last year before Tron Legacy was released — it’s not something done in the wake of the film’s reception. That’s important.

You’d think that greenlighting something like Tron 3 is a deal that Disney would announce to the world, so interpret the fact that there isn’t even yet an official blu-ray announcement of Tron Legacy, much less an official announcement of a third film, however you will. At a $330m worldwide gross Tron Legacy can’t even be close to being profitable, so wait and see what happens in the next few months.

Olivia Wilde has revealed that she hopes a sequel to Tron: Legacy will be made in the near future.

The House star told MTV that she would like to see how her character of Quorra would cope in the real world after stepping out of the computers at the end of Legacy.

She said: “I’m so thrilled to play with Quorra in the human world – it would be sort of like Splash. I want to see her whispering to laptops and hugging toasters. There’s a whole other chapter ahead.”

The actress added that Cillian Murphy’s part of Edward Dillinger could appear more in any possible sequels. She said: “Cillian Murphy, we were so lucky to have in this film. His part in Tron: Legacy is so mysterious and cool.

“His role really fits into the mythology of Tron, the corrupt environment of Encom. It just shows you that this fight is far from over.”

Tron: Legacy is in cinemas now.

Costar Michael Sheen, 41, isn’t as sentimental. “I would like an exact replica of everything that’s in the real world, except it has a tiny little voice that would say ‘Michael, I love you’ constantly,” he confesses. Beau Garrett, 27, on the other hand, would want a robot version of her dog, but this time she’d have “a little remote for her.” Why? To stop her from barking, of course!

Watch our exclusive video to find out why Tron star Olivia Wilde, 26, thinks she’ll be “one of those crazy parents” and what the stars would tell their younger selves if they could go back in time.

Today is the day! “Tron: Legacy” is now out in theaters worldwide – playing in regular, 3-D and even IMAX! Make sure you stop by your local cinema and see the film this weekend!

Wilde is the picture of old Hollywood elegance as she meets us in Beverly Hills. She sat seats away from us at the Tron: Legacy screening and her excitement while witnessing the final product after all her hard work was palpable.

Tron: Legacy is a sequel 30 years in the making and Olivia Wilde, co-star Jeff Bridges and the rest of the filmmaking team are primed for audiences to finally see all the magic they’ve created as the sequel arrives in theaters in eye-popping 3D.
Olivia Wilde wins us over

SheKnows: You sat next to us at the screening last night, what were your thoughts as you saw this film come to life?

Olivia Wilde: It surpassed all my expectations. You know what happens so often as an actor is you retain the information about the scene that you yourself shot and you obsess over certain scenes that you found the most challenging or interesting. And the rest of the film kind of falls away in your memory or it fades a little bit. You know it’s been so long since I actually kind of read the script in its entirety, a good year or more. So being able to watch everyone’s performance, watch all elements of the story come together was just extraordinary. And I was blown away by everyone’s work and that was my reaction was just, “Oh my God, everyone pulled it together.” Everyone did things they’d never done before and it was for so many different departments, so revolutionary. And being able to watch Michael Sheen’s performance was really a treat for me. I think that was probably the most astounding thing — just being able to see the entire picture together and realize how much hard work paid off.

SheKnows: How much influence did you have into your look in Tron: Legacy with those leather outfits?

Olivia Wilde: It was a true collaboration to create Cora. And when we originally started putting together ideas, it was really kind of up for grabs because Cora, of course, was not in the original film. And Joe Kosinski [director] was very interested in making her a unique and an unusual femme — not even femme fatale — a female heroine. This type of film is unlike any other, so we worked very hard to make her very intelligent and powerful but at the same time childlike and nuanced. We didn’t want her to be there as a foil for the men — not just the eye candy. That character could have easily turned into the temptress of the Tron world. She could’ve just been this sexy femme fatale. With a suit like that, it’s easy to fall into that [laughs]. But because Joe was adamant that she not be that, I worked very, very hard to create someone who is not that. We were able to work together to create Cora. We were very inspired by Joan of Arc. I brought up the concept of Joan of Arc very early on — six months before we started shooting.

Tron as female inspiration

SheKnows: How do you think women will be inspired by your role in Tron?

Olivia Wilde: I want girls to feel inspired by her strength and her wit and her intelligence and her compassion. I think that it’s rare these days to have a female character in these types of movies that isn’t just there to look really sexy in a suit. Too often that’s what happens and you wonder, “Who did these little girls dress up as for Halloween?” [Laughs] You know, when I was little, we dressed as Wonder Woman. And Wonder Woman represented social justice and honesty.

SheKnows: Now that you’ve seen the entire film, what do you think the overriding theme is?

Olivia Wilde: The message is that imperfection is beautiful. The idea of accepting flaws is strong. The story is one of a dictator who has ethnically cleansed this universe. The message, I think, is that of compassion, humanity and humility.
Olivia Wilde’s wild ride

SheKnows: Between House and your movie roles, your career is really taking off. What has the last year of your life been like?

Olivia Wilde: I feel like the luckiest person on the planet. Tron was such a departure for me. Cora was unlike anyone I have ever played before. I got to create someone who was unlike anything anyone had ever seen me do before. So after that, I was really excited about doing that again — departing from myself and transforming. Because beyond the physical transformation of Tron, it was really just quite a transformation on many levels. It’s been a really, really incredible year and every single thing I’ve done has been very different from last. Now it seems to all be kind of bubbling to the surface and I’m very proud.

Cole Haddon: What was your reaction, seeing Tron: Legacy for the first time?

Olivia Wilde: It surpassed all my expectations. What happens so often as an actor is, you retain the information about the scene that you yourself shot, and you obsess over certain scenes that you found the most challenging or interesting. But the rest of the film kind of falls away in your memory. It’s been so long since I actually kind of read the script in its entirety — a good year or more — so being able to watch everyone’s performance, watch all elements of the story come together, was just extraordinary. And I was blown away by everyone’s work, and that was my reaction — just, “Oh my God, everyone pulled it together!”

CH: Aside from the effects, I think I was more surprised by the political undertones. The filmmakers tried hard to give the story some gravity.

OW: Yes, absolutely, and I saw it more than ever [in the final cut]. I knew it was there in the script, but I was really excited to see, “Oh good we have a little bit of a political slant.” Maybe nobody will … notice but you and me, but I think that the message … is that imperfection is beautiful. And the idea of accepting flaws and … I mean, the story is one of a dictator who has ethnically cleansed this universe. And what’s left is this desperate and miserable world. And so the message, I think, of course, is that compassion, humanity, and humility are important in our own lives as well as in — in politics. But, gosh, again that makes me think of how incredible each performance was because [look at] a character like [Jeff Bridge's] Clu — [who's] this just merciless dictator, who really kind of sends chills up your spine as you think of who he resembles in actual history. [So yeah], I think it does have a message as well, I mean a political message as well as one just about humanity in general.

CH: One of the most astonishing aspects of Tron: Legacy is that the filmmakers pit Bridges against a version of himself that is 28 years younger. I’m speaking of Kevin Flynn, the character he played in the original, taking on a computer program created in his image called Clu. It’s an amazing affect. As an actress, do you think at all about things you’re doing now being repurposed in a similar fashion years later?

OW: I think it’s such an interesting concept. I think my dream movie is to take Clint Eastwood, Julie Christie, Vanessa Redgrave, and Meryl Streep, and take them all, and put them in like a teen comedy. Because now we can do that. It would be the most expensive teen comedy ever made, but totally worth it. I want to see that movie. But what I really realized while watching [Legacy and Jeff's] performance as Clu was that no matter what effect they come up with, to be able to make actors seem younger or older, it’s still driven by the actor. And the effects are extraordinary and Eric Barba’s team is incredible, but Jeff was driving that rig and [his] performance is what makes that character so compelling. And it was sort of a relief to know actors will still be needed no matter what they come up with. Even if we’re stuck in a booth somewhere hidden away, they’ll still need actors to drive these things and make them interesting.

CH: This is your first experience being turned into merchandise, right? How do you feel about that?

OW: This is my first experience with that. I don’t think there’s a little House 13 doll unless I’m missing something. It’s really quite odd. I like Carrie Fisher’s take on it. Carrie Fisher is such an incredible writer and actress, and person. I don’t know if any of you have read or seen her one-woman show Wishful Drinking, but she talks a lot about the merchandise that came from Star Wars, including the blow-up doll — which I haven’t heard of any of those being created for Quorra. It’s a funny out-of-body experience to see some miniature version of yourself on the shelf, but I feel so proud to have created this character, so whenever I see a little Quorra or I see a Quorra costume I just feel that this was something that we created together, and it’s just a very different experience when you feel like you designed the character. Every part of her look and being is something that has come from the research that went into creating her personality and her history. And so I’ve enjoyed the experience so far — but the second I see a Quorra blow-up doll, I won’t.

CH: Talk about that look, and how you guys came up with it. It was great.

OW: The look, yes, it was a true collaboration, to create Quorra. And when we originally started putting together ideas for it, it was really kind of up for grabs because Quorra, of course, was not in the original film. And [the director] Joe Kaczynski was very interested in making her a unique and unusual femme. Not even femme fatale — a female heroine. And so we worked very hard to make her very intelligent and powerful, but at the same time childlike and nuanced, so that she would not just be there as a kind of foil for the men, not just the eye candy. She could have very easily … turned into the temptress of the Tron world. She could’ve just been this sexy femme fatale. With a suit like that, it’s easy to fall into that, I think.

We were very inspired by Joan of Arc. I brought the concept of Joan of Arc very early on, six months before we start shooting. And I said, “Joe, I found Quorra. I figured her out. She’s Joan of Arc.” Because Joan of Arc was this unlikely warrior, this child who could lead an army. She was kind of unnaturally powerful and seemed to have this connection to another world, to a higher power, to be guided by something greater than her and by selflessness. And that was Quorra. And that combination of innocence and strength is unusual in characters, and so, once we found this historical reference, it was really fun to flesh her out.

But Joe was completely on board with that from the beginning. When you’ve hit the jackpot with directors is when they can be as excited about that stuff as you are. I remember calling or emailing Joe at 3 a.m. again, six months before we started shooting anything: “I think I figured it out. I was looking at ancient Korean Buddhist warriors, and I think that Quorra’s one of them. And they fight with swords so Quorra needs a sword.” And the next day, great Quorra has a sword.

So that’s part of the reason I feel so proud of the finished product of Quorra is because so much hard work went into it, so much collaboration, so much love and I feel very proud of the way she’s come out. She’s quirky and odd, and I like that. Another reason I was so adamant about making her so intelligent as well as being a warrior, is because I really want her to appeal to the female audience and particularly young females. I wanted her to be a role model for a young audience.

CH: Your imagination sounds as broad as the filmmakers, and now you’re starring in Cowboys and Aliens, which should be almost as insanely original. Were you a fan of these kinds of science-fiction fantasy stories as a young girl?

OW: I’ve always been a fan of science fiction. I, my family, we used to all watch Star Trek together. Sort of a nerdy family activity. But I, as far as reading science fiction, I think Jules Verne was probably the extent of my science-fiction literature in my library. I was much more into romance as a teenager, and it’s been a kind of new discovery for me to learn about sci-fi adventure. It’s an honor to be a part of it. I think it’s a really interesting genre, and it’s all about imagination. There’s just … it’s boundless what you can do in these stories. And so when you have a creative team like we did for Tron you can just exceed all expectations and all boundaries of the imagination. It’s just kind of a beautiful thing to be able to be a part of.
