Bridges is reprising his role of Kevin Flynn and his video game avatar Clu from the 1982 glowing neon Tron universe, and his participation in the multi-decade anticipated sequel has had fans buzzing with excitement. The actor is joined in this new electronic adventure by young up-and-coming stars Garrett Hedlund and Olivia Wilde, who play Flynn’s son Sam, and Quorra, respectively.
Mr. Jeff Bridges is currently having a good day. The actor was given an Oscar nomination for Best Actor for his work in the movie Crazy Heart. The role has already snagged him numerous awards, including a shiny new Golden Globe.
