Disney's Tron: Uprising is indeed coming to San Diego Comic-Con 2011, though not in the way you might think.
The series won't hold its own panel, but rather a special preview of the series will be attached to the panel for Disney XD's Kick Buttowski - Suburban Daredevil, which takes place on Saturday, July 23rd from 12-1pm in Room 25ABC.
The animated series officially debuts in 2012, but fans need only wait until this coming fall for the 10-part miniseries' beginning, which boasts a ridiculous amount of starpower in its voice cast, including Elijah Wood as Beck, Emmanuelle Chiqri as Page, Mandy Moore as Mara, Paul Reubens (Pee-Wee!) as Pavel, Lance Henrikson as Tesler, Reginald VelJohnson (Carl Winslow!) as Able, and Bruce Boxleitner himself reprising his role as Tron.
The official description reads:
"Beck, a young program who becomes the unlikely leader of a
revolution inside the computer world of The Grid. His mission is to free
his home and friends from the reign of the villainous Clu 2 and his
henchman General Tesler. Beck will be trained by Tron - the greatest
warrior the Grid has ever known.
Tron will not only teach Beck the fighting skills he needs to challenge this brutal military occupation, but will be a guide and mentor to him as he grows beyond his youthful, impulsive nature into a courageous, powerful leader. Destined to become the new protector of the system, Beck adopts Tron's persona and becomes the archenemy of Tesler and his oppressive forces."
More updates will arrive, so keep it here for all the latest Tron: Uprising news from Comic-Con 2011!
