Rinzler

Rinzler is an antagonist set to appear in the upcoming Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. He is a villainous copy of Tron who serves CLU.

Development
Rinzler was revealed to appear, along with The Grid, in the Jump Festa 2012 trailer. He appears to play out the same role as in Tron: Legacy, except for his interactions with Sora and Riku. Following Claude Frollo, he is the second Disney villain confirmed for the game.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance
Rinzler is seen preparing to fight Sora in the Jump Festa 2012 trailer. In the Special trailer released on Valentine's Day, CLU offers Rinzler in exchange for Sora's Keyblade, and in a later scene, he faces Quorra and Sora in CLU's quarters.

Appearance
Rinzler wears black body armor with orange circuitry, with four orange squares arranged in the shape of a 'T' on his chest and lines on his fore and middle fingers. His face is covered by a black helmet similar in structure to the one worn by Vanitas. He wields an Identity Disk, a black chakram-like weapon with a white outer border and an orange inner border, that can split into two smaller but just as lethal disks.

Origin
Following the defeat of Sark and the Master Control Program, Kevin Flynn copies Tron from the ENCOM server onto his new Grid and also creates CLU 2 so that the two of them will oversee the Grid's maintenance.

One day, however, while Tron is escorting Kevin Flynn to the portal to the real world, they are ambushed by CLU 2 and four Black Guards. Tron tells Kevin to run as he fends them off, leaving him to fight and ultimately lose to CLU 2. Tron is then repurposed to serve him as Rinzler.

In Tron: Legacy, Rinzler makes his first appearance as the final opponent of the Disk Wars, fighting Sam Flynn until he bleeds, identifying him as a User. Throughout the rest of the film, he is brought into conflict with Kevin, Sam, and Quorra. Ultimately, during a high-speed Light Jet battle, he overcomes CLU 2's programming and flies straight into his former master. The attack fails, however, and Rinzler falls into the sea of simulation, where his circuitry returns from orange to white.

In the film, Rinzler is portrayed by martial artist/stuntman Anis Cheurfa, and voiced by Bruce Boxleitner. He was named after J. W. Rinzler, an Executive Editor at Lucasfilm.
