The Story: What Is Tron: Ares About?

Ares (Jared Leto) is a cutting-edge program sent on a dangerous mission into the real world by Dillinger Systems. His task? Find the Permanence Code—technology that would allow digital beings to exist permanently outside the Grid instead of vanishing after 29 minutes.

When Ares meets Eve Kim (Greta Lee), ENCOM’s CEO who advocates for responsible tech use, he begins questioning his programming. As corporate powers clash over this breakthrough, Ares develops self-awareness and must choose between remaining a controlled weapon or asserting his own autonomy.

The film also features Evan Peters, Gillian Anderson, and Jeff Bridges reprising his role as Kevin Flynn.
