After the release of 2010's Tron: Legacy, Tron 3 has been in development for years, in one way or another. Now, numerous Disney fan sites are repeating a report from three years ago.

The original report from March 2017 states that Tron 3 is in development with Jared Leto in talks to star. At that time, it was reported that the film was in the very early stages of development. Since then, Disney also canceled a Tron TV show without ever having announced it.

However, there is some news on the future of the beloved franchise. On an episode of the Light the Fuse Podcast, Disney music executive Mitchell Leib opened up about the future of the beloved franchise. "I had lunch with Paul Hahn to further a bit of a starting conversation that we're looking at making a sequel to Tron now, we're looking at Tron 3," Leib said (via ComicBook). "And we've got a great script, I mean a really phenomenal script that we're very excited about. Whereas the timing wasn't right to have done it years ago, I think we feel like the timing is right now, and I feel like we've learned a lot of lessons from that last movie."
