‘Tron: Ares' is Disney's Big Hall H Movie for San Diego Comic-Con
Marvel may be skipping San Diego Comic-Con's famous Hall H panel this year, but Disney's reportedly got Tron: Ares showing up in its stead.
According to TheWrap, the sci-fi sequel will get a panel during the annual pop culture convention. That would be noteworthy on its own, but it takes on further significance owing to its lead star, Jared Leto, who plays the titular Ares program. In early June, AirMail published a report wherein multiple women accused the Morbius and House of Gucci actor of inappropriate and sexual misconduct, some of which reportedly happened when they were underage. One woman speaking to the outlet claimed his behavior 'has been an open secret for a long time.'
Leto subsequently denied the allegations, and there's been equal silence from Disney and Amazon MGM. The latter studio is distributing 2026's Masters of the Universe, where he'll be portraying He-Man's nemesis, Skeletor. TheWrap's report doesn't disclose what Ares stars will show for Hall H, which also stars Greta Lee, Cameron Monaghan, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Jeff Bridges. Marketing for Tron: Ares has been nonexistent since its first trailer, but SDCC often comes with big, attention-grabbing trailers. Disney likely has (or had) one ready for Hall H, but his allegations might throw a wrench in those plans and other parts of its marketing.
Tron: Ares releases October 10 in theaters, and San Diego Comic-Con runs July 24-27.

‘Ironheart' EP Ryan Coogler, Star Dominique Thorne Tease Show's Connection To Marvel's ‘Avengers: Doomsday': 'Great Sample Of Things To Come'
Though Ironheart executive producer Ryan Coogler wasn't initially thinking of a spinoff series for Dominique Thorne's Riri Williams — first introduced in 2022's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever as a young Chicagoan tech wiz — once Marvel's team approached him about it, the character's future in the MCU was set in stone. 'No, no, I like to take things one step at a time,' Coogler told Deadline on the red carpet at today's Los Angeles premiere for the Disney+ series held at the El Capitan Theatre. More from Deadline 2025 Premiere Dates For New & Returning Series On Broadcast, Cable & Streaming 'Sinners' Sets Max Streaming Release Date Disney+ Sets 'The Remarried Empress' Adaptation Starring Shin Min-a & Ju Ji-hoon The Sinners helmer said the character of Riri first came about as a 'foil to [Letitia Wright's] Shuri,' someone who could showcase her growth as she filled a 'mentor' and 'big sister' role. It wasn't until the creative team was 'down the road' on the film that he was approached by fellow Ironheart executive producers Brad Winderbaum and Zoie Nagelhout about a show. 'It was obviously complicated, wanting to make sure that we were leaving enough room while establishing who Riri was, but it's been so exciting,' Coogler said. Ryan Coogler on the development to further expand #Ironheart through this series — Deadline (@DEADLINE) June 24, 2025 The series also serves as the MCU's introduction of spectral magic meeting tech via the villainous character The Hood (Anthony Ramos), a low-level criminal who stumbles upon a magical cloak powered by the same forces depicted in Doctor Strange. 'It's so crazy to be putting this movie out now, at the time where AI is on the front of everybody's mind, technological ethics are on the front of everybody's mind,' Coogler noted, 'but also — we didn't know it was going to be Dr. Doom and the Avengers when we first started, but he's a guy in publishing who's most famous for fusing technology and magic, so it's a great sample of things that are to come in probably what's going to be the biggest movie in Marvel history.' #Ironheart executive producer Ryan Coogler on spectral magic and how it could play into the next projects in the MCU — Deadline (@DEADLINE) June 24, 2025 Separately, when asked about an update on the script for Black Panther 3, Coogler said he's currently 'working' on it. Ryan Coogler on 'Black Panther 3' — Deadline (@DEADLINE) June 24, 2025 For her part, Thorne teased how her STEM-oriented protagonist will deal with the 'more mystical side of things. We definitely see her family, her mother try to kind of welcome her into that in a very rudimentary way and also really spiritual way that she is not at all interested in, so I think it's a hilarious journey and also a really tempting journey that we see her go on once she realizes the full extent and capability of the magic side of the world.' Dominique Thorne on how her #Ironheart character Riri Williams interacts with spectral magic — Deadline (@DEADLINE) June 24, 2025 Ironheart premieres on Disney+ tomorrow, with a three-episode drop.
