After the 'Tron

According to the sources, the studio is planning to develop a reboot of 'Tron' movie, with Oscar-winning actor Jared Leto starring in it, reports The Hollywood Reporter.

Sources further said, this new project is not a direct sequel and is being built out of the source code of the deleted 'Tron 3' script.

Leto would play a character named Ares, who has not appeared on screen before, but was a key player in that script.

Justin Springer, co-producer of 'Tron: Legacy,' will produce the movie.

However, no filmmaker has been involved in the project till now.
