The Japan premiere of the film "Tron: Ares" (directed by Joachim Rønning, to be released in Japan and the US simultaneously on October 10th) was held on October Getsuku at TOHO Cinemas Shinjuku (Shinjuku Ward, Tokyo), with appearances by voice actors for the Japanese dubbed version, including Uchida Maaya, Kaito Ishikawa Junichi Suwabe, and Tamura Mutsumi, as well as guest appearances by comedian duo Maple Chogokin's Ando Natsu, Hotta Akane, and Dandy Sakano.
"Tron: Ares" is the latest installment in the American "Tron" film series. The first film, "Tron," released in 1982, is a masterpiece that left its mark in film history as a work that introduced full-scale CGI. The second film, "Tron: Legacy," released in 2010, also generated a lot of buzz. In the latest film, an advanced AI materializes in the real world. Dillinger Corporation, a company familiar from the "Tron" series, materializes the AI soldier Ares (played by Jared Leto) in the real world, but he becomes uncontrollable and the world falls into chaos.
