Disney’s ‘Tron’ movie reverse-ages Jeff Bridges

LOS ANGELES -- Hollywood has famously had better luck using makeup to make young actors look old. But the ability to manipulate images digitally could prove to be a fountain of youth for actors getting long in the tooth. In "Tron: Legacy," which opens Dec. 17, 61-year-old actor Jeff Bridges will play Kevin Flynn, at his natural age, and a computerized avatar called "Clu," who hasn't aged since around the time he was first created in the original "Tron" in 1982. Clu bears Bridges' face, altered to make him about 35 years old.
