The team behind Tron Legacy is not done drawing from Disney’s 1980s live-action vault for inspiration.
Per The Hollywood Reporter’s Heat Vision blog, Tron Legacy’s director Joseph Kosinski, producer Sean Bailey and scribe Travis Beacham will reunite to reimagine Disney’s The Black Hole for modern audiences.
The project will be the first under new Disney studio chief Rich Ross and will serve as a replacement for the recently shelved 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea redo which Ross was unwilling to move forward on. Ross will certainly want to make a big splash returning to The Black Hole and will likely throw a huge budget at it much like Tron Legacy received.
The only information offered at this time about The Black Hole remake is it will focus more on the science of the space phenomenon and will feature the towering red menace robot Maximilian. Vincent and Old Bob’s fate are currently unknown.
