Tron is a 1982 American science fiction action adventure film written and directed by Steven Lisberger, based on a story co-written with Bonnie MacBird. The narrative follows Kevin Flynn, a computer programmer and video game developer played by Jeff Bridges, who is transported into the software world of a mainframe computer.
Within this digital environment, Flynn interacts with anthropomorphic programs in an attempt to escape the system. The film features a cast that includes Bruce Boxleitner, David Warner, Cindy Morgan, and Barnard Hughes. Notably, Tron was one of the earliest motion pictures to utilize extensive computer-generated imagery (CGI).
