Last June, MTV News traveled up to Vancouver to visit the set of "Tron Legacy," Disney's stand-alone sequel to the 1982 sci-fi classic. Along with a select group of journalists, we toured the set, talked to cast and crew and immersed ourselves in all things "Tron."
A studio-imposed embargo has now lifted and we can bring you the first of our interviews. Here's some of what Steven Lisberger, the co-writer/director of the original film, had to say.
Question: How weird is it for you to be in the sequel to "Tron" in 2009?
Steven Lisberger: We're in unchartered territory right now. It's a little bit like Rip Van Winkle.

It was a public assassination spearheaded by Caesar's supposed supporter Marcus Junius Brutus -- hence the famous line from Shakespeare's play, "Et tu, Brute?" -- and participated in by many of those present that day. Now, more than 2,000 years later, and thanks largely to the aforementioned playwright, people still know to "Beware the Ides of March!"
Hollywood fiction is rife with double-crosses. Some of the best films in history hinge on a sudden reversal of loyalty. Let's face it: double-talk and surprise twists make for good storytelling.
