Earlier this month, we reported that Disney was going forward on a third TRON movie and that filming might begin as soon as this fall in Vancouver. Now Production Weekly that TRON 3 will be titled TRON: Ascension, and start a five-month shoot beginning October:

TRON: Legacy did throw out a few breadcrumbs for continuing the story. Notably, “Rinzler” was actually TRON, and Cillian Murphy had an uncredited cameo as Edward Dillinger Jr., the son of TRON villain Ed Dillinger (David Warner). But these few items made it seems like TRON: Legacy was laying down track before even knowing how far its light cycle could ride.
