Tron: Legacy Set To Return To San Diego Comic-Con, New Billboard Image Released

At the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con, Disney went all out promoting Tron: Legacy, complete with an imitation Flynn's Arcade and a premiere of the first test footage from the film. And why not? What better place to reach out to geeks than at Geek Mecca? The film is still not due out until this December, however, well after Comic-Con in July. So why not do it all over again?

Disney has confirmed via press release that Tron Legacy will once again have a presence at this year's event, where they will be bringing back the filmmakers and cast for "never before seen visuals and 'scoop' for the Convention fans." The film will also be hosting a booth that will display the merchandise that will be released with the film, including toys, clothing and the TRON: Evolution videogame.

I, along with some of the other Cinema Blend All-Stars, will be covering this year's event and will be sure to give you all of the details we can about what Disney brings to Hall H. In the meantime, enjoy this awesome new billboard image. Click it for high-res:
