Disney puts Tron Legacy sequel in motion

Tron Legacy isn’t due until December,but Disney already is putting a sequel on its monorail track. Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz,the Lost writers/co-executive producers who worked on Legacy,have begun writing a sequel to the studio’s sci-fi tentpole. No details have been released because it is so early in the process. Notwithstanding the question of whether the movie will be a hit,other topics to ponder are whether the sequel will focus on spinoff characters or center on a new adventure set in the Tron world. Insiders have suggested that Kitsis and Horowitz are working on a way to round the story into a trilogy.

No deals have been made with Legacy director Joseph Kosinski or cast members to return,though options were placed in the original deals,and Disney surely would hope to reunite all the elements if Legacy proves to be a hit.
