The upcoming firefighter movie Only the Brave finds the great Jeff Bridges reteaming with his Tron: Legacy director, Joseph Kosinski. So, when your writer chatted with the actor Tuesday morning for the EW radio show Entertainment Weirdly at Sirius XM’s New York studios, I had to ask about the ongoing rumors that we might one day see a third Tron film.

“Yeah, yeah, I’ve heard those rumors too,” Bridges replied. “I hope that happens. I think Joe’s got the script and everything, you know. Yeah, I don’t know that I’m supposed to talk about it or not. I don’t know. It should be the first virtual reality movie, you know? Wouldn’t that be cool…to see Tron in that world?”

It would indeed, Dude. It would indeed.

Bridges was in town to attend the premiere of his new film, comedy-drama The Only Living Boy in New York, which costars Callum Turner, Kate Beckinsale, Pierce Brosnan, Cynthia Nixon, and Kiersey Clemons. You can hear the full interview with Bridges next Monday, Aug. 15, at 1 p.m. ET on Entertainment Weirdly on EW Radio. And you can watch the trailers for both The Only Living Boy in New York and Only the Brave, below.

The Only Living Boy in New York will be released Aug. 11, while Only the Brave arrives Oct. 20.
