Jared Leto may not be playing Joker or Morbius anytime soon, but he’s going to be helming another franchise with Disney’s long-awaited Tron follow-up, Tron: Ares.

Just in, Empire has dropped a new look at Leto in costume, and we get a little more details about the upcoming sequel. Check this out:

Though it is disappointing that Daft Punk won’t be reuniting to provide the soundtrack, this film has managed to tap Nine Inch Nails to provide the songs this time around. Director Joachim Rønning explains:

“With Nine Inch Nails making the music, this instalment will be a little grittier, a little bit more industrial… It’s been important for me to contrast The Grid and the real world. In that sense, Nine Inch Nails lends itself perfectly into this new Tron world that we are creating.”

Just in case you weren’t familiar with the band, here’s one of their songs that sounds like it would very much jive with the overall mood of Tron:

It’s unclear what the story of Ares will be, but it’s said that it will be drawing from the original plans for Tron: Ascension which has something to do with the Grid coming to the ‘real world’. Leto is said to be playing Ares, a program that comes to our world and realizes that he doesn’t want to help destroy it. Rønning describes the theme of the film, “What I always look for in any story is a strong emotional core… This film will probably be more emotional than people are expecting. It’s about the cost of being human.”

Tron: Ares is set to come out in theatres on Oct. 10, 2025.
