Tron 3 in development starting Jared Leto Tron 3

Breaking news! The Disney company has announced that ‘Tron 3’ is officially in development!

Jared Leto is reportedly being considered to star in the next exciting chapter of the Tron movie franchise. Disney is also searching for a movie director for the sequel. Although not confirmed, it’s hoped that Tron: Legacy director Joseph Kosinski will return.

Disney music executive Mitchell Leib discussed the future of the Tron franchise in a recent podcast. He first talked about working with Daft Punk on the music for Tron: Legacy, but then switched into a conversation about the development of a tentative “Tron 3” sequel. He confirmed that Disney already has a script in hand, too. With the success of Disney+, “Tron 3” may come out as a direct-to-streaming movie.

“Now with Disney+, I think there’s opportunities to be creating content that we otherwise wouldn’t have been able to create, you know because we’re in the movie business,” Leib explained. “We’re in the big movie business, and unless it’s a big movie idea we don’t make small movies. We’re only after basically billion dollar box office hits. On the one hand, that’s great. On the other hand, that’s a very narrow sleeve to operate in, and Disney+ I think is going to afford us the opportunity to expand and get much more diversified in the kind of content we can create. And Daft Punk has a bit of a television and movie development company, and all kinds of things they’re into, businesses they’re into. So I had lunch with Paul Hahn to further a bit of a starting conversation that we’re looking at making a sequel to Tron now, we’re looking at Tron 3. And we’ve got a great script, I mean a really phenomenal script that we’re very excited about. Whereas the timing wasn’t right to have done it years ago, I think we feel like the timing is right now, and I feel like we’ve learned a lot of lessons from that last movie.”

We’ll provide updates when more information becomes available.

Inspired Schoolgirl Asks for Disney Princesses with Glasses

Eleven-year-old Lowri Moore, from Nottingham, England, wrote a letter to Bob Iger last year requesting the creation of Disney princesses that wear glasses. According to BBC News, Lowri, who wears glasses, said that she wanted to see more characters “wearing glasses like me.”

Lowri’s letter to Bob Iger read: “I’ve grown up watching Disney princesses and I’ve always admired them and thought they were beautiful. Unfortunately, none of the princesses wear glasses and that made me feel as though I’m not beautiful enough.”

Lowri described that the Disney characters featured with glasses were typically portrayed as “geeky or nerdy instead of beautiful.” She felt so strongly about the need for a glasses-wearing Disney princess that she came up with her own!

A local illustrator, Natalie Owen, heard about Lowri’s letter and character idea, and was a Disney fan herself- so she decided to help out! According to BBC News, Owen decided to create the story, ‘Princess Rose and the Golden Glasses,’ featuring a beautiful princess in an orange gown and, you guessed it…glasses!

Lowri was thrilled about the glasses-wearing princess- “The illustrations are amazing and I’m so excited this has happened. Rose has blue-ish glasses, brown long hair, kind of like me. Even if it’s not Disney it’s still a role model for young people. I’m happy I got to create one.”

Lowri’s mother was also touched by the new book- “[The character] thinks she’s not beautiful because she’s wearing glasses. A bit like someone else I know. And she goes on a bit of an adventure where she discovers she actually is beautiful. To come from a nine-year-old’s mind it’s so clever. I’m super proud.”

Although there is no response from Disney to Lowri’s letter, it would be great to see a glasses-wearing Disney princess in the future!

Bring Frozen 2 To Your Home In Style With Disney Bounding

Now that we have all been at home for quite some time, we’re sure you are watching a lot of Frozen 2 on Disney Plus. Don’t worry, so are we! Thanks to the Disney Bounding fashionista herself, Leslie Kay, we have an all new reason to watch. Leslie’s carefully created three super cool looks for Frozen 2 fans just like us!

Disney Bounding is where Disney meets fashion and magic happens! Any one can do it and it allows us to be as creative as possible. Disney Bounding at home, however, adds another essential element: comfort-ability. Besides, the comfort will help as you’re singing along to all those epic songs in Frozen 2.

For the perfect Disney Bounding tips, there’s one person who really knows her way around. Leslie Kay is the epitome of all things Disney Bound. She literally wrote the book on it, “DisneyBound: Dress Disney and Make It Fashion”. These three looks, created by Leslie herself, are the perfect fit for your next Frozen movie night!

Bring Frozen 2 To Your Home In Style With Disney Bounding

This Anna look is giving us some seriously royal vibes! The royal purple mixed with the metallic details are truly fit for any queen. The black dress offers a free flowing style that adds a level of comfort that is perfect for wearing at home.

In Frozen 2, we see a different side to Elsa than in the first film. Her adventure outfit is a bit more “queen casual” than her signature “Let It Go” gown. This bound matches that cool and casual look. Also, we can’t help but be living for those icicle, sparkly sneakers!

Last, is the reindeer king himself, Kristoff. This look is equally effortless as it is stylish. Pair neutral colors together to create a similar Kristoff color palette. Tie in some boots and try to get the family pet to stand in as your Sven and you are all set!

We hoped these looks help you in creating your own Frozen 2 looks! Remember, to make it creative and make it your own. Nothing completes a look more than owning it and being confident. Also, if you do put together some cool Disney Bounds, make sure to tag @ChipandCo on Instagram so we can check them out!
