Tron Franchise in Limbo
After a disappointing box office opening, Tron: Ares has put the franchise in a state of uncertainty. Despite Disney's efforts to revive it, the series remains in limbo.
Disney has experienced its share of failed franchise launches, such as John Carter. However, the Tron trilogy, spanning 43 years, is too successful to be considered a bust, yet not successful enough to reach the heights of other Disney IPs.
- Tron: Ares opened with $33.5 million domestically and $60 million globally.
- The film's performance is underwhelming compared to Tron: Legacy, which grossed $400 million worldwide before inflation.
Why does Disney keep reviving it?
The franchise's limbo status is a result of its cultural and financial success, making it difficult for Disney to abandon or rebrand the series.
Author's summary: Tron franchise faces uncertainty after poor box office opening.
