SAN DIEGO — Olivia Wilde was born two years after Tron came out in 1982. Now she’s starring in the sequel to the sci-fi classic, Tron Legacy, set to hit next year.

Wilde (pictured) took a break from the Comic-Con International crowds to chat with us at the Wired Cafe about her experiences working with Jeff Bridges (she had to put her fist in her mouth to not ask about “The Dude”). In the video below, she also talks about how Benjamin Button is helping take things back to 1982, why acting in front of a blue screen is a lot like working in theater and how there’s really nothing cooler than a light cycle.
