\"Olivia<\/a>For years, the thought of a sequel to the 1982 cult classic TRON<\/strong> was something that kept geeks warm on cold winter nights. Now that the project is finally going ahead, the thought of the first two new cast members for the film will also do the same.<\/p>\n

Olivia Wilde and Beau Garrett, who previously shared the screen together in the horror flick Touristas<\/strong>, have been hired for TR2N<\/strong>. Both actresses will play denizerns of the cyberspace reality that exists inside a computer.

The 3D process is certainly being used by a lot of upcoming films. Much like the concerns I have raised about the increasing use of the IMAX process<\/a>, I can only hope that the use of 3D in a film will be the help enhance the storytelling and not as just a cheap gimmick. Still, my geek heart beats a little faster at the thought of a 3D, first-person view of a light cycle race!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
