Jan 7, 2009 According to reports from The Hollywood Reporter, Garrett Hedlund has emerged as the winner in Disney's search for the actor to star in the sequel to 1982's Tron, TR2N (or Tron 2, Tron 2.0, or simply Tron, depending upon which source you believe).
Joseph Kosinski is making his feature film directorial debut with the $150 million special effects-heavy movie. Hedlund joins a cast which also includes Olivia Wilde and Beau Garrett (both from Turistas) as well as Jeff Bridges, the star of the original Tron who'll be revising his role as Kevin Flynn.
Disney's hoping to go into production this spring.

Update: It looks like Disney might just be going with the simple title: Tron.
