Tron: Ares — 2,000 VFX Shots with a Strict No-AI Rule

Video Description

Tron has always pushed the limits of technology — but Tron: Ares takes it one step further. This is how Disney finally brought the Grid into our world. The Tron franchise has always been a benchmark for visual innovation, and Tron: Ares continues that legacy. Directed by Joakim Rønning, the film brings the digital world of the Grid into the real world for the first time — creating humanity’s first contact with AI beings. In this behind-the-scenes look, Collider explores how the filmmakers transformed downtown Vancouver into a living circuit board, redesigned the iconic light suits for a new generation, and reimagined the franchise’s aesthetic through motion-controlled IMAX cameras. You’ll also hear how Nine Inch Nails replaced Daft Punk to give the sequel a darker, industrial edge — and why Jeff Bridges’ return is more symbolic than nostalgic. Tron: Ares isn’t just another sequel; it’s a statement about the future of technology and storytelling. 0:00 The Legacy of Tron 0:23 Entering the Real World: Tron Ares Begins 1:23 Filming in Vancouver’s Neon Nightscape 2:13 Reinventing the Iconic Tron Suits 3:04 The Tech Behind the Grid 4:02 IMAX, Visual Effects, and Real Cameras 5:05 Scoring the Future: Nine Inch Nails Joins Tron 6:51 Jeff Bridges Returns to the Grid 7:31 Why Tron Still Matters Our Social Media: https://www.facebook.com/collider/ www.x.com/Collider Our Website https://www.collider.com For copyright matters, please contact us at: [email protected] #tron #tronlegacy #tronares #behindthescenes #disney #jaredleto #nineinchnails
