Joseph Kosinski Updates on TRON 3 and THE BLACK HOLE
With Tron: Legacy and Oblivion under his belt, director Joseph Kosinski is ready to focus his efforts on the development of Tron 3 and his remake of Disney's The Black Hole. While talking to Entertainment Tonight, Kosinski gave a brief update on where these films currently stand.
"Both projects are being written right now by two really talented writers. Jon Spaihts is writing Black Hole and Jesse Wigutow is writing TRON 3. Both scripts are in progress, I'm really excited about both. The fundamental ideas of both are really interesting. The TRON sequel kind of takes where we left off with 'Legacy,' that idea presented in the last few minutes of the film and really expands on it in a really exciting way."
The director is then asked about The Black Hole and it's a remake or a reboot. This was his reply,
"I guess I would call it a reboot because the fundamental concept is there but we are taking it in our own direction."
When it comes to movies, do you think that reboots and remakes are the same thing? Or is there a difference in your mind? I think reboot is just a nicer way to say remake.
Whatever the case may be, Kosinski is a talented visual director, and I'm looking forward to seeing what he ends up doing with both of these films. I'd like to see him get to Tron 3 first though. He gave that franchise such a cool look! Hopefully the script turns out a little better this time around.
