Jeff Bridges took a leap of faith when he starred in 1982's cult classic Tron, one of the first Hollywood movies to blend live-action and computer-generated effects. It may not have set the box office on fire, but Tron was technologically ahead of its time and has led to this month's big-budget reprise Tron: Legacy.

Bridges returns as Kevin Flynn, even getting to see himself de-aged 30 years thanks to the magic of visual effects. We grabbed a quick chat with the Dude himself at the UK premiere of the latest Tron to discuss returning to the grid.
