Despite a lukewarm critical reception to last year's Tron: Legacy, it is believed that the $399 million (£243m) secured by the film overall has convinced Disney to continue plans for a new addition to the franchise.
According to Deadline, Tron: Legacy director Joseph Kosinski will assist in the construction of a sequel, along with returning writers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz.
The report notes that it is currently uncertain as to when Kosinski will officially begin work on Tron: Legacy 2, noting that he is soon due to begin work on a remake of Black Hole.
It was suggested in January that Disney was close to announcing a new Tron film, and Kosinski himself recently admitted that he would be keen to return for a second outing.
Tron: Legacy was released on Blu-ray and DVD in the US last week, and will be released in the UK on April 18.
