Disney XD Reveals TRON LEGACY CGI Series (Sorta)!!
|
Disney XD unveiled its Upfront slate a day or two ago, where Gary Marsh (Entertainment President & CCO of Disney Channels Worldwide) revealed some stills from a TRON LEGACY CGI series which may appear on that channel.
Marsh also offered a glimpse at Tron: Legacy, which is at such an early juncture in the development process that only stills were available. The project is a CGI refresh of Disney’s 1982 theatrical, and may be positioned as a companion piece to the 3-D feature of the same name that is expected to be released in December of this year.
Neither pilot has been green-lighted as yet, Marsh said.
“Tron is another example of how we can take advantage of the intellectual property that the studio unit pays tens, if not hundreds, of millions to develop and market,” Marsh said.
...says Mediaweek HERE.
This news corroborates our initial scoop about this project's existence, which appeared here back in early February (DETAILS). If anyone out there actually got a look at the development stills shown at the Upfront, SEND IN A DESCRIPTION - we'd love to hear what the (possible) show might look like.
I'm imagining something kinda like REBOOT?
Thanks to Robogeek for pointing out the Mediaweek article.
