Daft Punk to Score Tron 2.0?

via Pitchfork

Daft Punk might be writing the original score for Tron 2.0, Disney's sequel to the so-obsolete-it's-incredible 1982 evil computer movie, according to Upcoming Film Scores. This is such a perfect pairing, we hope against hope it's true. (Representatives for the band have yet to respond to requests for confirmation.)

The only way Tron 2.0 could suck is if it takes itself too seriously (always a concern for camp-cult remakes and sequels). It's directed by Joseph Kosinski (who's done lots of eye-melting CGI commercials like this one for Nike), written by "Lost" screenwriters Eddie Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, and stars "House"/"O.C." star Olivia Wilde and some dude named Garrett Hedlund, says The Hollywood Reporter. Jeff Bridges will also reprise his original role as super genius Kevin Flynn. The movie is currently being shot in Vancouver, British Columbia for a projected 2011 release date, according to IMDb.

80s nostalgia can get a bit toxic at times, so hopefully these Tron 2.0 guys can bring Tron into the future while retaining some of the past. You know what would be a great way to do that? Hiring Daft Punk to write the music. The Oscar performance will rule.

The only way one could perceive this as a negative would be if Daft was in the studio recently for this instead of a studio album. While scoring this film would be awesome, Id much rather see a studio album than a suspect score from DP. Their ventures into film have been moderately successful (arguable I guess, I dont know how the critics viewed D.A.F.T., interstellar 555, and Electroma), but a studio album seems to be much more worthwhile for diehard DP fans.
