As of yet, there’s no reveal on exactlyhowthe character would return – after all, he seemingly got de-rezzed after merging with his digitally de-aged doppelganger Clu in the Tron sequel – but he will join the likes of Jared Leto, Greta Lee, Evan Peters, Jodie Turner-Smith, Hasan Minhaj, Cameron Monaghan, and Gillian Anderson in the cast for the Tron threequel.

Previously, Bridges told theFilm Comment podcast(H/TThe Playlist) that he “didn’t like the way [he] looked” in Tron: Legacy.

“I felt like I looked more like Bill Maher than myself. It was kind of bizarre,” Bridges said, though added that Tron: Ares would have “even less A.I. stuff” and more practical sets.

Fellow cast member Cameron Monaghanechoed those thoughtsin an interview withCollider.

“I think this one, in a very similar way, is going to really push forward what can be done, from a visual perspective. I would sometimes even come in on days I wasn’t working, because that set was really amazing. A lot of the practical sets were pretty phenomenal, and I would love to go look at those as well,” Monaghan said.
