Today the Walt Disney Twitter account confirmed the villainous Tron Legacy casting rumor is true regarding Michael Sheen.
@MSheenOnline Yes, Michael Sheen will have a role in Tron Legacy!

So yes Michael Sheen will have a role in the new Tron film, he tweeted himself not to long ago that he would play the villain that is "in fact not a person at all." Micheal Sheen is a great actor and I can't wait to see who or what kind of villain he ends up playing.
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 same world of fierce programs and gladiatorial games where his father has been living for 25 years. Along with Kevin's loyal confidant (Olivia Wilde), father and son embark on a life-and-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe that has become far more advanced and exceedingly dangerous.
After hearing and seeing what they are going to do with this movie at Comic-Con, I couldn't be more excited to see this thing brought to life. The disc wars are going to be insane looking!
