'''''Tron: Ares''''' (stylized as '''''TRON: Ares''''') is an upcoming American [[science fiction film]] produced by [[Walt Disney Pictures]]. A [[standalone sequel]] to ''[[Tron: Legacy]]'' (2010) and the third installment in the [[Tron (franchise)#Films|''Tron'' film series]], it is directed by [[Joachim Rønning]] from a screenplay by Jesse Wigutow and [[Jack Thorne]]. The film stars [[Jared Leto]], [[Greta Lee]], [[Evan Peters]], [[Hasan Minhaj]], [[Jodie Turner-Smith]], [[Arturo Castro (Guatemalan actor)|Arturo Castro]], [[Cameron Monaghan]], [[Gillian Anderson]] and [[Sarah Desjardins]], with [[Jeff Bridges]] reprising his role from the previous installments.

Development of a sequel to ''Tron: Legacy'' began in October 2010 by franchise creator [[Steven Lisberger]]. Plans changed when the franchise would be moving towards a reboot instead in March 2017, with Leto playing a new character. [[Garth Davis]] was set as director in August 2020 when Wigutow was working on the script, but stepped down in January 2023. Rønning replaced him a month later. Production was expected to begin in August 2023 but was delayed by the [[2023 Writers Guild of America strike|2023 Writers Guild of America]] and [[2023 SAG-AFTRA strike|SAG-AFTRA]] strikes. Filming ultimately began in January 2024 in Vancouver and wrapped in May. By August, [[Nine Inch Nails]] was composing the score.

''Tron: Ares'' is scheduled to be released in the United States by [[Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures]] on October 10, 2025.<ref name="TheatricalRelease" />
