Image Credit: Disney XD
According to Entertainment Weekly, TRON: Uprising, Beck’s Beginning,” introduces a Beck, a young mechanic living in Argon City, a growing metropolis in a far off corner of the grid that has just been occupied by General Tesler, a henchman of the notorious Clu. After his best friend Bodhi is ruthlessly derezzed by Clu’s army, Beck seeks justice for his lost friend and launches a crusade against the regime. His rebellion captures the attention of Tron, the greatest warrior The Grid has ever known, who sees the potential in Beck and trains him to be his successor. Labeled with the moniker of The Renegade, Beck sparks a revolution to fight for the freedom of The Grid.”
Tron: Uprising is set between the two Disney movies. The voice cast includes:
Elijah Wood as Beck: Beck must master and perfect his skills under Tron to become the brave warrior and hero he’s destined to become, and move the Grid to the place it needs to be – a place of peace.
Emmanuelle Chriqui as Paige: A field commander with unmatched combat skills, Paige has endured her share of tragedy. Separated from Grid “family” during a battle, she was rescued by Tesler. This resulted in a deep loyalty to him, which sometimes blinds her to his darker side. She is Beck’s chief antagonist and, eventually, the object of his desire.
Mandy Moore as Mara: One of Beck’s best friends and co-worker at the garage. Mara specializes in the deadliest weaponry/vehicles.
Nate Corddry as Zed: One of Beck’s best friends and co-worker at the garage, Zed’s specialty is working on the fastest vehicles within the Grid.
Lance Henriksen as Tesler: One of Clu’s generals. Extremely ambitious, and therefore desperate to please Clu, his goal is to crush Argon City to gain power, and move beyond this remote sector of the Grid.
Reginald VelJohnson as Able: Beck’s “grandfather” type figure. Able owns and runs the garage where Beck, Zed and Mara work. As one of Flynn’s first programs he is the elder statesman of Argon Sector, but is constantly worried about the future, and Beck.
Bruce Boxleitner as Tron: A fallen hero who was once the greatest warrior and protector of the Grid, Tron is now in seclusion after being deeply damaged in a battle with Clu. He sees Beck as a worthy warrior to step into his role and be his successor.
Fred Tatasciore will be the voice of Clu 2 and Kevin Flynn
The show will officially debut Thursday, June 7, on Disney XD, but you won’t have to wait that long to see an episode of the show. Disney also plans a special half-hour Tron “prelude” next month, titled Tron: Uprising, Beck’s Beginning, that will air on the flagship Disney Channel on May 18.

The Amazing Spider-Man: Official Trailer (@SpiderManMovie @geeksngoddesses)
Release Date:
July 3, 2012
Official Synopsis:
One of the world’s most popular characters is back on the big screen as a new chapter in the Spider-Man legacy is revealed in The Amazing Spider-Man™. Focusing on an untold story that tells a different side of the Peter Parker story, the new film stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Denis Leary, Campbell Scott, Irrfan Khan, with Martin Sheen and Sally Field. The film is directed by Marc Webb from a screenplay written by James Vanderbilt, based on the Marvel Comic Book by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. Laura Ziskin, Avi Arad, and Matt Tolmach are producing the film in association with Marvel Entertainment for Columbia Pictures, which will open in theaters everywhere in 3D on July 3, 2012.
The Amazing Spider-Man is the story of Peter Parker (Garfield), an outcast high schooler who was abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben (Sheen) and Aunt May (Field). Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. Peter is also finding his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy (Stone), and together, they struggle with love, commitment, and secrets. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents’ disappearance – leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors (Ifans), his father’s former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors’ alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.

With The Avengers, Joss Whedon Masters the Marvel Universe
With the Avengers opening in less than 3 days, I read a great article profiling Joss Whedon on Wired Magazine. It describes Whedon’s successful rise with cult fave Buffy the Vampire Slayer, his setbacks with Firefly and Dollhouse, to his eventual selection as director of the Avengers.
Marvel and Disney took a major gamble with Joss Whedon as director. After all, his only major film to date was Serenity - a sequel to Firefly. According to the article, Kevin Feige, head of Marvel Studios, said, “We needed somebody who wasn’t going to reinvent the wheel, because the die was cast and the cast was cast,” “And yet we wanted somebody with a unique voice, because this had to feel like a part one, not Iron Man 3 or Thor 2.”
“The Avengers has so many characters, and the only reason for them to team up is some world-shattering threat, which equals spectacle,” Feige says. “How can we navigate all those characters and not have them get lost in the action?” In other words, whoever directed it would need to be able to handle the storytelling and characterization issues that came with an ensemble. And while it wasn’t a requirement, it’d be nice to have someone with geek cred—someone who knew their way around comic books.
Looks like they picked the right man for the job! The Avengers Assemble on May 4th!
