Official Synopsis:

Produced by Disney Television Animation, the series follows Beck, a young program who becomes the unlikely leader of a revolution inside the computer world of The Grid. His mission is to free his home and friends from the reign of the villainous Clu and his henchman General Tesler. Beck will be trained by Tron – the greatest warrior the Grid has ever known. Tron will not only teach Beck the fighting skills he needs to challenge this brutal military occupation, but will be a guide and mentor to him as he grows beyond his youthful, impulsive nature into a courageous, powerful leader. Destined to become the new protector of the system, Beck adopts Tron’s persona and becomes the archenemy of Tesler and his oppressive forces.

TRON: UPRISING features the voice talents of Elijah Wood, Mandy Moore, Emmaunuelle Chriqui, Bruce Boxleitner, Lance Henriksen and Paul Reubens, with LEGACY writers Adam Horowitz & Edward Kitsis overseeing as producers.

No word yet on a UK air date, but expect this to hit June Stateside.
