With their “Tron” sequel due out sometime in December of this year, Disney isn’t quite sitting on their laurels waiting for the money to roll in on neon lightcycles. The studio is already developing an animated series to be based on the franchise, as well as a new “Avengers” animated TV series that will make use of their recently acquired Marvel Universe catalog.
Geared towards kids age 6-14, the plan is to precede “Tron” with another project, a 10-part “Tron” micro-series premiering in fall 2011 on Disney XD.
It’s funny, my nephews don’t even know what “Tron” is, but I’m sure they could care less as long as there are shiny lightcycles zipping around onscreen.
