Rotenier
Award-winning, Paris-born jewelry designer Robin Rotenier has created a unique TRON: Legacy-inspired jewelry assortment for men and women. The women's line features sterling silver earrings, necklaces and two cuff bracelets inspired by the icons seen in the film. Also, two pairs of men's cufflinks in sterling silver with a black rhodium finish will be available. One pair depicts the TRON lightcycle with the iconic TRON helmet as the closure, the other is inspired by the computer symbols and circular graphics seen in the film.

“The futuristic aesthetics of TRON:Legacy had me on a creative overdrive,” said Rotenier. “These jewelry pieces are bolder and more futuristic than what I traditionally design. They have my touch, but I have never gone that far!”

Rotenier carves his models, and each piece is finished by hand, distinguishing it from machine-made items. The national launch for the entire collection is expected at the end of this month at select high end department and specialty stores.

TomTom
The fine jewelry designer, TomTom, known for combining architecture fabrication techniques with traditional jewelry design, is unveiling a limited-edition women's collection of necklaces, earrings, rings and bracelets that focus on TRON's sleek futurism. The line will be available this November only at the TRON pop-up retail store.

In addition to the women's couture line, the complete assortment of TRON: Legacy-inspired fashions now includes a performance apparel line for men by adidas, Burton, Hurley and Oakley; a unisex jewelry collection by Han Cholo; TRON: Legacy “Movie Replica” motorcycle suits for him and her from UD Replicas and a line of caps by New Era. Innovative toys and action figures plus an electronics line round out the film's merchandise assortment.

TRON: Legacy
“TRON: Legacy” is a 3D high-tech adventure set in a digital world that's unlike anything ever captured on the big screen. Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), a rebellious 27-year-old, is haunted by the mysterious disappearance of his father Kevin Flynn (Oscar- and Golden Globe-winner Jeff Bridges), a man once known as the world's leading video-game developer.

When Sam investigates a strange signal sent from the old Flynn's Arcade—a signal that could only come from his father—he finds himself pulled into a digital world where Kevin has been trapped for 20 years. With the help of the fearless warrior Quorra (Olivia Wilde), father and son embark on a life-or-death journey across a visually-stunning cyber universe—a universe created by Kevin himself that has become far more advanced with never-before-imagined vehicles, weapons, landscapes and a ruthless villain who will stop at nothing to prevent their escape.

“TRON: Legacy” is directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Sean Bailey, Jeffrey Silver and Steven Lisberger. The story is by Eddy Kitsis & Adam Horowitz and Brian Klugman & Lee Sternthal, and the screenplay is by Eddy Kitsis & Adam Horowitz, based on characters created by Steven Lisberger and Bonnie MacBird. Presented in Disney Digital 3D and IMAX 3D and scored by Grammy Award–winning electronic music duo Daft Punk, “TRON: Legacy” hits theaters on December 17, 2010.
