Disney Confirms Michael Sheen in Tron Legacy

Michael Sheen can now bump The Twilight Saga: New Moon down a notch on his resume and insert Tron Legacy!

The official casting confirmation came via a “blink and you’ll miss it” Twitter Tweet from Disney Pictures which read simply, “Yes, Michael Sheen will have a role in Tron Legacy!”


The news comes after Sheen dropped cryptic Twitter messages back in May suggesting he was cast in a “mystery film” but would not be playing a human character. The assumption, though unconfirmed, is he will play the film’s primary villain.

A slow trickle of Tron Legacy updates are expected over the next year as post-production kicks into high gear. In case you missed it, watch the Tron Legacy VFX trailer here.
