Disney is reportedly retiring Tron from the big screen after a lacklustre opening for Ares.
You can’t say Disney didn’t try to make Tron work. They struck just when the iron was hot, decades after each film so new generations had to recall what Tron was and rewatch films that struggle to make an audience care. Disney put Jared Leto in charge of a franchise, a leading man whose last franchise effort was so bad it was memed into being re-released in cinemas, only for no one to go and see it.
