Leto tweeted to confirm his involvement, writing: "I’m struck with such gratitude for the opportunity to bring this movie to life, especially as both the original video game and the film affected me so deeply as a young child. The fact that I get to be a part of this new chapter is mind-blowing.

"I am so very excited and proud to confirm that YES - I will be starring in TRON.
