I thought it would at least be another year before anyone mentioned a follow-up to director Joseph Kosinski‘s (Horizons) sequel to the cult classic Tron from 1982,  TRON: Legacy. It turns out that I was wrong. At the D23 Expo earlier this month, an intrepid fan managed to rapid fire some questions at Bruce Boxleitner (TRON: Uprising) while he was getting an autograph from the actor.

In less than thirty seconds, Boxleitner managed to confirm that he will be in the film, and drops the release year as well. Check out the video below!

TRON: Legacy is available on DVD & Blu-ray now, and the animated series TRON: Uprising is slated to air on DisneyXD in 2012.
