'Tron 3' 'isn't totally dead', says Garrett Hedlund

London: Actor Garrett Hedlund says if a gripping story is written,"Tron 3" could still take place.

The statement by Hedlund, 31, who essayed the role of Sam Flynn in "Tron: Legacy" came as a sigh of relief for the fans, who were left disappointed after Disney decided to shelf the idea of 'Tron 3' earlier this year, reported Digital Spy.

"I haven't been told it's totally dead. Ever since we did Legacy, we knew that to have another story follow it up, it had to be concrete and exciting," he said.

"Disney needed to have the right story to go forward. I think it was going to introduce some things that were as exciting as Legacy was and then some, though," he added. The work on the project had already started in Vancouver, before Disney decided not to go ahead with 'Tron 3' back in May.
