The creator's iconic 1982 film Tron largely unfolds within the virtual universe inside electronic games, where digital beings, depicted as human-like figures in neon-streaked attire, compete on the Grid in dangerous contests. Programs are brutally killed (or “deleted”) in the Battlefield and obliterated by jetwalls in high-speed showdowns. The filmmaker's 2010 sequel Tron: Legacy goes back inside the computer world for more vehicle combat and more fighting on the Grid.

Joachim Rønning's Legacy continuation Tron: Ares employs a slightly less video game-y approach. In the movie, digital entities still battle each other for survival on the digital world, but mainly in life-or-death conflicts over confidential files, serving as avatars for their business developers. Protection software and intrusion agents confront on corporate systems, and in the physical world, large vehicles and speed bikes brought from the digital realm operate as they do in the virtual world.

The combat entity Ares (Jared Leto) is an additional recent development: a super-soldier who can be repeatedly replicated to fight wars in the real world. But would the real-life Leto have the actual skills to endure if he was pulled into one of the digital arena's contests? At a recent media gathering, actors and filmmakers of Tron: Ares were questioned what virtual worlds they would be most inclined to survive in. We have their answers — but we've also our own assessments about their skills to survive inside virtual worlds.

The Star

Part: In Tron: Ares, the actress portrays Eve Kim, the leader of ENCOM, who is preoccupied from her leadership tasks as she attempts to locate the crucial information assumed to be left behind by the original character (the star).

The digital environment Lee thinks she could endure in: “My children are really into Minecraft,” she states. “I'd never want them to realize this, but [Minecraft] is so fantastic, the realms that they build. I think I would prefer to enter one of the worlds that they've made. My little one has built this one with creatures — it's just stocked with birds, because he is fond of parrots.”

The actress's probability of survival: 90%. If Greta Lee simply resides with her little ones' feathered companions, she's secure. But it's unclear whether she knows how to evade or deal with a Creeper.

The Star

Role: the actor plays Julian Dillinger, the chief of opposing corporation the business and relative of the founder (David Warner) from the original Tron.

The digital environment Peters feels he could survive in: “I'd certainly fail in the [Disc Arena],” Evan Peters stated. “I'd go into BioShock.” Clarifying that reply to fellow actor the star, he states, “It's such a excellent video game, it’s the finest. BioShock, Fallout 3 and 4, incredible post-apocalyptic environments in the franchise, and the game is an underground, run-down nightmare.” Did he even grasp the query? Unknown.

The actor's likelihood of endurance: In BioShock? 5%, comparable to any other normal human's likelihood in the location. In any of the Fallout game? A modest chance, purely based on his charisma score.

The Actress

Character: Gillian Anderson plays the matriarch, parent to the character and child to the original character. She’s the former chief executive of the company, and a significantly rational executive than her son.

The game the actress feels she could make it through: “Pong,” stated Anderson, regardless of her apparent knowledge with the digital experience Myst and her co-starring role in the 1998's interactive CD-ROM The X-Files Game. “That is as complex as I could handle. It'd take so a while for the [ball] to approach that I could dodge out of the way promptly before it reached to collide with me in the body.”

The actress's likelihood of endurance: An even chance, depending on the basic nature of Pong and whether receiving a blow by the ball, or not volleying the ball back to the other player, would be deadly. Additionally, it’s very dark in Pong — could she fall off the stage to her death? What does the dark abyss of the title affect a human?

The Filmmaker

Job: Joachim Rønning is the filmmaker of Tron: Ares. He also made Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil.

The virtual world the director believes he could endure in: Tomb Raider. “I was a child of the ’80s, so I was interested in the Commodore 64 and the gaming device, but the initial title that got to me was the very first Tomb Raider on PlayStation,” Rønning explains. “As a movie guy — it was the first title that was so immersive, it was interactive. I'm uncertain that's the game I would truly desire to be in, but that was my initial remarkable journey, at least.”

Joachim Rønning's likelihood of endurance: Twenty percent. If Rønning was transported into a adventure title and had to face the animals and {booby traps
