David Bowie Inspired Tron: Legacy Star

Michael Sheen says he took inspiration from some unexpected sources for his role in the film. During a recent interview, the actor says he observed the on-screen style of David Bowie to develop his character.

"I watched every single David Bowie video that had ever been made. And I watched a lot of Bob Fosse," he says, according to Torontosun

"I wanted the character to be like a popular culture jukebox. I like the idea of a character who's a survivor. And he's survived because he's adapted. He's someone who has his finger on the pulse the whole time. He's tapped into popular culture all the time."
