Flynn Lives: “TRON: The Next Day” Blu-ray Footage Leaked Online Nick Butler, March 12, 2011March 12, 2011 A few months ago, it was reported that new scenes, possibly even a teaser for ‘TR3N’, would be included with the DVD Extras of TRON: Legacy. At least one of those extras leaked online earlier today.
