Garrett Hedlund visits his movie Tron: Legacy’s booth during Comic-Con 2010 at California’s San Diego Convention Center on Friday (July 23). The 25-year-old actor gave JustJared.com an exclusive interview. Check it out below!

JJ: How does this Comic-Con experience compare to last year’s?

GH: It’s funny. When we were here last year, it was just a week after we had finished filming so we didn’t know what to expect. We knew there was a huge reaction from the year before with the VFX footage. Comic-Con is the whole reason this film exists. It’s because of what [director] Joseph Kosinski did and what he’s shown at Comic-Con. Last year when we did our press conference, before the Hall H panel, there were about 23 people sitting in the room. This year, it was hundreds of people in a board room, so you get to see the growth of anticipation and curiosities.

JJ: How exciting was it to be cast in this film?

GH: It was so nerve-wracking! I had never done a film where I was in every scene all day every day. I always wanted to be a piece to the puzzle, to sort of formulate a great puzzle. I didn’t care to be the whole picture. Maybe I just wasn’t ready for it at that point.

When I was doing table reads with Jeff [Bridges], Olivia [Wilde] and Joseph Kosinski, I started saying “maybe I can do this”.

Once we started filming, I knew it would be a long tedious process, very strenuous and hard at times but incredibly exciting. Its such an exciting experience to be involved with Joseph Kosinski, who I feel is the biggest genius of the next generation.

JJ: Any fun stories from set?

GH: The [glowing] suit fit like a glove! It was tight as all hell, but fantastic wardrobe to wear. We even had to wear a full body harness underneath it to get wired up to do wire work. Then there were shoulder rolls, looking left, looking right, standing up, catching a disc, and throwing a disc. If you were watching from the sidelines, it was quite the show.

JJ: Because inquiring minds want to know, are you single? Dating?

GH: Oh, I’m single. I can’t date! I’m working.

“89. That was the year everything changed for me,” says Sam as he readies his parachute for the jump. “I’m doing you a favor (Alan) because you know and I know that you really don’t like these Encom dog and pony shows.”

Who is Sam Flynn?
Sam Flynn is the son of famous video game creator and digital pioneer Kevin Flynn. He was born in 1982. His mother passed away unexpectedly in 1985, leaving Sam and Kevin. In 1989, Sam’s father was on the verge of a major discovery when he disappeared with no trace, leaving Sam’s grandparents to take care of him. Legally, Sam is the largest shareholder of ENCOM, the company his dad worked for, but he doesn’t want any of the stock. He lives modestly with his pet dog in a shipping container reconstituted into a home on the river with a beautiful view of the city and the Encom building itself.

Every year to make the anniversary of his father’s disappearance, he performs a daredevil stunt, such as parachuting or motorcycle stunts. In 2010, Kevin Flynn’s good friend Alan Bradley told Sam that he got a message from the telephone number from Flynn’s arcade; the number was previously disconnected over 20 years ago. Reluctantly, Sam heads over to his father’s abandoned arcade to find a hidden office, complete with a digitizer. Sam is digitized and sent to cyberspace to help find his dad.

Movie Productions > Tron Legacy (2010) > TL – Sam Flynn Crashes ENCOM (LQ)

Our Mission
Infiltrate the Encom press conference on April 2nd, 2010.

They have their own agenda, but we’re going to scramble their signal and send a message that the world really needs to hear – Kevin Flynn is out there and we must find him!

Pre-Meeting Details
Flynn Lives will be amassing at 6:30pm at the Hyatt Regency, in the Grand Ballroom, 5 Embarcadero Center (right next to Justin Herman Plaza).

Wear your Flynn Lives t-shirts (if you do not currently possess a t-shirt, we will be distributing them in the Ballroom).

Press Conference Details
8pm – Justin Herman Plaza.

Open to the public, but bring your forged Encom badges if you have them.

Plan of Attack
Gather, march, bide our time, get loud!

After we lay out our strategies in the pre-meeting, we will all head over to the press conference in stealth mode (jackets covering our t-shirts, badges displayed – we’ll look like every other Encom drone). Then, we’ll listen to what Alan Bradley has to say about Encom’s latest product (could be cool – let’s cut him some slack). When the moment is right, we’ll all remove our jackets to reveal that our allegiance lies with Kevin Flynn. That’s when one of our members will take the stage as we chant our mantra in unison: FLYNN LIVES! FLYNN LIVES! FLYNN LIVES!!!

I wonder if Garrett attended?

Garrett Hedlund attended The Greatest Premiere in Los Angeles at Linwood Dunn Theater at the Pickford Center for Motion Study on March 25, 2010.

THE GREATEST tells the story of Allen and Grace Brewer, a grief-stricken couple whose family has been pushed to the breaking point by the death of their older son, Bennett, in a car crash. When a young woman, Rose, shows up a few months later announcing that she is pregnant with Bennetts child, the Brewers are forced to take her in. At first, Roses presence threatens to tear the family even further apart but, eventually, her interaction with each of the Brewers proves to be the very thing that brings them back together.

Written and directed by Shana Feste, who also directed Love Don’t Let Me Down. I adore Garrett for supporting people he works with

An oldie but a newie.

On October 09, 2009, Garrett attended the HIFF Sloane reception at the Wolffer Estates in Sagaponack. Below, pictured with Sharon Stone.

So we have an official movie name and an official name for Garrett’s character.

Sam, not Sean.

We also know it’s not a re-make but it’s a sequel. And we finally get to hear from the cast.

Comic Con 2009 has been a blessing for our unanswered questions. Now here’s a report from the Tron: Legacy panel.

“One of the most anticipated films of 2011 is “Tron Legacy,” the sequel to the 1982 sci-fi movie “Tron.” Disney didn’t disappoint fans during their 3-D panel at San Diego Comic-Con on Thursday.

Filmmakers and members of the cast, including Jeff Bridges reprising his role as Kevin Flynn, introduced footage revealing that the story revolves around Kevin’s son Sam.

‘I go on search for my father and find myself in this crazy world,” said actor Garrett Hedlund, who plays Sam Flynn.’”
