The sequel to the 1982 Disney flick Tron -- about a civilization that exists inside microcircuitry --- now has it's star.

Garrett Hedlund will play the hero who is pulled from our world into the computer world. The 24 year-old will be joined by Jeff Bridges, who reprises the role of Flynn from the original film -- the first guy who made that journey. Olivia Wilde and Beau Garrett have already been cast.

Hedlund has previously appeared in Troy and Eragon.

The $150 million film is being directed by Joseph Kosinski and will begin filming this spring.
