Bruce Boxleitner has had a long standing career in television, beginning with the series HOW THE WEST WAS WON in the late 1970’s, the still very popular series SCARECROW & MRS. KING in the 1980's, and the sci-fi series BABLYON 5 in the 1990's. Currently, Bruce can be seen in many made-for-television movies and guest appearances on such hit series as CHUCK and HEROES. |

At the press conference itself, first a woman got up on stage and introduced herself as an Encom press representative. She talked a bit about the history of the company and Alan Bradley - most notably, Bradley was CEO of Encom for a while in the late 1980s-early 1990s, but then stepped down. And now he's come back as a vaguely defined executive consultant, particularly working with Encom on environmental issues. Eventually, the man himself took the stage - accompanied at times by his lovely wife, Lora (Cindy Morgan). Boxleitner/Bradley gave a long, ten-minute speech about how much our computer technology has progressed since he started working for Encom - apparently in the movie's universe, Encom works on pacemaker implants as well as tons of communications software. But more to the point, Encom is bringing back its classic Space Paranoids game. And they're porting it to the Internet, so you can play it in your browser. Not only that, but the game will be with you, wherever you live. You'll have "Recognizers in your bedroom," said Bradley. But the game's engine will still be based on the code that long lost visionary Kevin Flynn created - including 15 new levels that Flynn created, which were never rolled out before. Some people at Encom wanted to do away with Flynn's original code and start over, but Alan Bradley prevented them. He also made a sentimental speech saying that Flynn is still alive in all of us. And then Bradley's speech sort of wound down, as though he was waiting for something to interrupt him and it wasn't quite happening. Just as Bradley had totally run out of things to say, the P.R. rep came back on stage and told him there were unforeseen difficulties, hustling him and his wife off stage ... |

Synopsis: TRON: LEGACY is a 3D high-tech adventure set in a digital world that’s unlike anything ever captured on the big screen. Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), looks into his father’s disappearance and finds himself pulled into the digital world of Tron where his father has been living for 25 years. Along with Kevin’s loyal confidant Quorra (Olivia Wilde) father and son embark on a life-and-death journey of escape across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous.
Latest News:May 3, 2010: Disney will also be unleashing a new game called "Space Paranoids Online" on their official website on May 6th.
April 15, 2010: At the WonderCon viral event for Tron Legacy, Encom International Executive Consultant Alan Bradley (played by Bruce) announced that one of the TRON LEGACY games would be coming soon, and now EncomInternational.com has posted a trailer for the game "Space Paranoids Online" hich you can now watch.
March 15, 2010:
Bruce has been cast in the upcoming new Disney animated series based on TRON LEGACY. The series would be aimed at children ages 6-14 and that this will be a 10-part micro-series, which will air on the new channel Disney XD in the fall of 2011.
Feb. 28, 2010:
The new 3D trailer will be in movies theaters on March 5, 2010 prior to showings of Disney's Alice in Wonderland, but here's a brief description.
Trailer Synopsis: The trailer starts off on the slow side, building a mystery. Bruce Boxleitner, reprising his role of Alan Gartner (as well as portraying TRON), is telling Sam Flynn about his missing dad, Kevin Flynn. He had discovered something that was going to change the world two days before he went missing. Now Boxleitner gets a phone call from a phone from Flynn's Arcade ... a line that should be dead! Soon enough, Hedlund, with an appropriate chip on his shoulder from not having a dad in his life, is at the arcade (he gets there by motorbike, speeding down late night streets and jumping his motorbike from the highway to an off-ramp) and... before long, he's in the computer world. Here the trailer's pace jumps up a notch, with a series of quick and very teasing images of the world fans have been waiting to come to since 1982: a massive city, a blocky transportation machine, Olivia Wilde lounging sexily in a glowing suit, gladiator games, more gladiator games with sexy sirens, Bridges with a retinue of underlings, a blink-and-you-missed-him Michael Sheen, maybe a meeting of father and son, and the kicker ending, a lightcycle race with an explosion.
