Jared Leto’s 40-Year Journey to Tron: Ares Started in an Arcade

Tron and video games have always gone hand-in-hand: after all, the entire story kicked off when Kevin Flynn entered The Grid to prove he’d designed the wildly successful Space Paranoids game for Encom. In that spirit, IGN sat down with the cast of Tron: Ares to learn more about their earliest gaming memories, their experience bringing The Grid into “our” reality, and whether future Tron movies should maintain Ares’ ratio of action which takes place in the real world versus the computer.
