Jeff Bridges Wasn’t A Big Fan Of His De-Aged ‘Tron: Legacy’ Appearance: “I Looked More Like Bill Maher”


Jeff Bridges wasn't 'particularly fond' of his digitally altered appearance in 2010's 'Tron: Legacy.'

As the conversation turned to the 1982 cyberpunk sci-fi pic and modern-day discussions of the role of artificial intelligence in film, Bridges said the Joseph Kosinski sequel featured a still “new” de-aging process via computer scanning — one he didn’t necessarily like. Looking back at Tron, the veteran actor explained that it was a concept that was “so bizarre” at the time, with the film using techniques like black-and-white photography to create its futuristic, neon digital world. With Tron: Ares, starring Jared Leto and slated for release Oct. 10, 2025, Bridges will reprise his role as talented video game creator Kevin Flynn in a brief cameo.
