Tron 2.0's Lead Character Will Be Beardless, Hot [Tron 2.0]
Welcome Garrett Hedlund as the new star of Disney's Tron 2.0, sequel to the 1982 light-cycle flick. While I can't say much for his acting chops, he's certainly giving Tron Guy some much-needed competition.I don't know much about Garrett Hedlund, other than he played a poorly pieced-together young virgin in Georgia Rule, and the exceedingly annoying emo warrior Murtagh in Eragon. But I can say this: the boy will look good in a unitard.This should be a make-or-break role for Hedlund, seeing as he'll have to g
