At the LA Pit Cell screening, I asked a similar question and got this from Kosinski:

"Yes, Tron will be in it. I promise you. The film is called Tron"

Sooooo.... yeah. I felt like he was deliberately keeping quiet about the details rather than answering the question directly... I had fluffed my question a bit though

[minterbartolo]

watch this Moviefone interview with Bruce, either I am reading too much into the clips and how he answers the questions or they pretty much show that Rinzler is Tron.

Take this as fodder or whatever you like..... This is just my speculation....

Has anyone given any thought as to why Rinzler has 2 identity discs? I'm thinking as others have stated, Clu, for lack of a better term, brainwashed him and now he has 2 identities. One disc for Tron and one disc for Rinzler. I wonder if the Rinzler disc were to get destroyed would the Tron persona reassert itself...

Again, just speculation on my part, but he is the ONLY program with two identity discs.

I found some screen caps from the graphic novel "Tron: Betrayal". The images have convinced me that in some way, Rinzler is Tron...
Just have a look at Tron's suit: the similar design and circuitry lighting on the fingers and chest...





Here's the full body shot of Rinzler for comparison:

I thought the same thing. Seems like the closest thing to a confirmation that we've gotten so far.

BTW: Can't forget the sneak-preview cover.

I'd be with you in the Rinzler=Tron camp fully if he wasn't blue in the comic then orange in the film. I guess that could be where the Betrayal part came in but I dunno. I figured that'd be Clu betraying Flynn. Or some statement about Flynn abandoning his family in the real world for the digital world.

I wouldn't get too hung up on colors. Remember how quickly the color change occurred in the original when they were on the solar sailer.(sailor?)

That's why I said not fully. Its probably the best reasoning that it is Tron but there's still a little bit of doubt for me. Part of me thinks maybe Clu used Tron as a base for his own lackeys/henchperson but it isn't actually Tron, like how all the warrior programs looked the same in the original so maybe all security avatars look similar if they have similar programming. Or the t on the program's chest is meant to throw us off in our speculation.

Maybe Tron is masked, with a false identity shell, to be "Rinzler", because he is working undercover for Flynn, like Tron (Rinzler) is a double agent that's monitering Clu and secretly sending intel back to Flynn.

The Identity disc spliting into two is like the Rinzler ID is on one disc and it masks the encrypted Tron ID and data thats on the other Disc.

Other Programs and Clu only percieve "Rinzler" and only Flynn knows his true identity. Rinzler never removes his helmet... just futher hidding whom he is. The "T" pattern is not noticed by Clu or others since Rinzler's true Identity is very deeply masked. Sort of how if you ecrypt a file
( something like a x-rated pic), and name the file Financial Report... it's actual content is hidden and innocous.
