Disney is gearing up to release “Tron: Ares” next month. Promotion for the new Tron movie without Tron has been ramped up, but why does it all feel like it’s more about a fashion shoot than the actual film?
The current box office projection for the film is $44 million domestic for the opening weekend.
“Tron: Ares” does have the advantage due to the lack of “tent pole” films and big draw movies at the box office. “Tron: Legacy” also did $44 million domestically at opening but that was 15 years ago. $44 million, then, is equivalent to about $65.3 million now.
It’s a film about technology and the online world colliding with the real world, but the fashion is what their focus seems to be on.
What is up with this?
Is this a “Tron” movie or a Jaguar commercial?
Literally, what the heck, Disney?

I don’t think constant fashion shoots is going to make people want to see the film.
They want a “Tron” movie and not a Jared Leto fashion show.
I hope the film is way better than the promotion.
“Tron: Ares” will release in theaters on October 10, 2025.
