Bruce Boxleitner talks TRON 3 "I think 'Tron: Legacy' left it open-ended. You see two beautiful people riding off into the sunrise, and Quora seeing sunrise for the first time. That leaves it open to imagination and speculation."
"We also saw Cillian Murphy and the boardroom at ENCOM when Sam pulled the stunt in the beginning," he continued. "All these things have been left hanging out there."
"Rinzler is the attack dog for Clu – and through the movie the character made a journey back to redemption. Rinzler's last line, 'I fight for the users,' is Tron's. Plus the design on his chest is Tron's design. He went to the dark side with Clu, but at the end after he rebelled and you saw him following, you could see the familiar blue color of Tron return. I don't think he's dead at all."
"What I liked in 'Tron: Legacy' was that Alan was a man that survived those many years, even at one point becoming CEO of ENCOM – even if only in name. At the opening of the second film these young guys have taken over the company and Alan's become slightly embittered and cynical. With Sam coming into his own, it gives Alan hope. And then the page from a long lost friend – this ancient piece of technology, reconnecting to a long lost friend. I think those two things inspired hope in Alan Bradley after all those years of seeing ENCOM become something he and Flynn didn't intend it to be. With Sam, and this tether back to Flynn, he found a way to do something about it."
"I want to participate in as many things related to 'Tron' as they'll let me. 'Tron' is part of my legacy."

Bruce Boxleitner is another awesome person to hold the name 'Bruce'
--Bruce Lee
--Bruce Campbell
--Bruce Banner
Okay, so the Hulk is a fictional character but he's cool nonetheless!

He was TRON. Then he was Sheridan. Then he was TRON again.
Can you get more awesome than that?

i had the pleasure of meeting Bruce Boxleitner at a signing in London, during his Babylon 5 years. He's the real deal; a thoroughly charming and nice guy. I'm glad that he's interested in supporting the TRON Legacy - whatever it may be.

I also had the pleasure to meet Bruce back at Flynn's Arcade at Comic-con last year. Loved it!
I also had the foresight to bring my 20th anniversary edition of Tron. When I asked Bruce to sign
it and he saw what it was, he was like a kid in a candy store! When he says' Tron is his legacy,
he means it! He still gets excited over the original!
Bruce signing my Tron DVD!
Bruce and me

He also had a small role in "Heroes". The guy looks really great, I hope he'll still be around for a long time.

I actually got my wife to agree to name our first son Bruce (when we have one). It's a good, strong, classical name, and so many Bruce's! Don't forget Bruce Wayne!
In return, I had to agree to name our daughter Mary-Jane.
