Cameron Monaghan at Fan Expo Calgary
The Big Picture Collider's Maggie Lovitt caught up with Cameron Monaghan at Calgary Expo, where he shared an intriguing glimpse into his long-standing connection with the Tron franchise, a journey that began long before his casting in the upcoming film Tron: Ares. Directed by Joachim Rønning and starring Jared Leto alongside Monaghan, the film, just like the original four decades ago, promises to push the boundaries of visual effects and storytelling within the iconic digital world.
His relationship with the franchise deepened significantly years later: "Then I went to the Tron: Legacy premiere when I was 16 years old, and had just done my first movie for Disney at the time. So, that was really cool getting to go to the El Capitan Theater in LA and seeing that on a big screen." This experience at the premiere, coupled with his budding career with Disney, tied Monaghan closer to the Tron legacy.
Looking forward to his own contribution to the series with Tron: Ares, Monaghan expressed his admiration for the film's creative direction: “I think this one, in a very similar way, is going to really push forward what can be done, from a visual perspective." He added, "I would sometimes even come in on days I wasn’t working, because that set was really amazing. A lot of the practical sets were pretty phenomenal, and I would love to go look at those as well.
