SDCC 2010 - Tron Legacy gets a new trailer

Tron Legacy New PosterThe 2010 San Diego Comic-Con got underway yesterday and, as has become customary these past couple of years, that means it's time for some Tron goodness! Two years ago at the 2008 Comic-Con director Joseph Kosinski debuted a preliminary teaser trailer for the then-titled TR2N, the long-anticipated sequel to Disney's cult sci-fi classic Tron, before announcing a name change to Tron Legacy and some early details about the project the following year.

Well, here we are twelve months down the line and, with a year of post-production under their belts, Kosinski, producers Steve Lisberger and Sean Baily, and stars Jeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde, Martin Sheen and Bruce Boxleitner set up shop on the Tron panel at Comic-Con, where they debuted 8 minutes of new footage along with a brand new trailer that has made its way online...


The panel also took part in a Q&A which brought up a few interesting points, specifically that Tron Legacy has been shot in native 3D (no shoddy conversion job here), while discussions have been held about a 3D release of the 1982 original. Read a full round-up of the Q&A at AICN.

Tron Legacy is set for release on December 17th 2010 in North America and Boxing Day here in the UK. Visit the official site, and check out the first theatrical trailer.
