Olivia Wilde of "House" will soon be of "Tron 2.0/Tr2n"* and while details on the film have been scarce, she did let a few slip in a recent interview with SCI FI Wire. Among them:
- Bruce Boxleitner WILL be in the movie, alongside his Tron co-star Jeff Bridges, both of whom will presumably be reprising their roles from the first movie. But what about David Warner? That's not specific to this movie—I always ask that question;
Person: My cat has feline leukemia.
Me: But what about David Warner?
Person: I hate you so much.
- The movie begins shooting in April in Vancouver and director Joseph Kosinski is actually building some massive sets for the movie, representing the virtual world, rather than shooting against green screens. This is a good sign because Kosinki understands that you don't need green screens to shoot a world that looks like a giant grid.
- The movie will make use of face-replacement computer technology last seen in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I wonder if anyone's face gets replaced with the Master Control Program. I wonder if it's David Warner.

*Can anyone clarify the title for me? And keep in mind that "Tr2n" is the wrong answer.
