But by the time of ''Tron: Legacy'', Flynn has been missing for eighteen years. His son, Sam, ventures into a new datascape, the Grid, to find him, only to discover that it has been taken over by Flynn's rogue program, CLU 2, and Flynn has been living in exile all this time with an ISO, Quorra. Eventually, when Flynn learns of CLU 2's plans to attack and take over the real world, which he sees as "imperfect", he joins forces with Sam and Quorra to escape back to the real world and trap CLU 2 inside the Grid forever, but CLU 2 pursues them and it all ends in a confrontation outside an I/O where Flynn sacrifices himself to save Sam and Quorra by forcefully merging with CLU 2 and disintegrating the both of them into nothing, dying a hero's death. | But by the time of ''Tron: Legacy'', Flynn has been missing for eighteen years.

Kevin Flynn is a character who will appear in the upcoming Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.
Development
Although a world based on Tron: Legacy was first revealed to appear in Jump Festa 2012, Flynn himself was not revealed until a special trailer in February 2012. In the trailer, he appears mostly to play out the same role as in Tron: Legacy, except for his interactions with Sora and Riku
Appearance
Flynn's appearance is based on his attire in Tron: Legacy, in which he is shown with long, grey hair and a bushy moustache and beard on his face. He is shown clad in long, black clothes which resemble robes.
Origin
Kevin Flynn's official debut was in the 1982 film, Tron, in which he is portrayed as a former ENCOM game designer whose games were swindled from him by a rival designer, Ed Dillinger, who acquired a series of promotions and made it to CEO of ENCOM. Flynn tries numerous times to hack into the system and obtain evidence of Dillinger's crimes, and one particular attempt gets him sent into the datascape, where he joins forces with Tron, Ram, Yori and Dumont to battle Sark and the Master Control Program and win his freedom. Flynn succeeds and gains his rightful position as CEO as ENCOM.
But by the time of Tron: Legacy, Flynn has been missing for eighteen years. His son, Sam, ventures into a new datascape, the Grid, to find him, only to discover that it has been taken over by Flynn's rogue program, CLU 2, and Flynn has been living in exile all this time with an ISO, Quorra. Eventually, when Flynn learns of CLU 2's plans to attack and take over the real world, which he sees as "imperfect", he joins forces with Sam and Quorra to escape back to the real world and trap CLU 2 inside the Grid forever, but CLU 2 pursues them and it all ends in a confrontation outside an I/O where Flynn sacrifices himself to save Sam and Quorra by forcefully merging with CLU 2 and disintegrating the both of them into nothing, dying a hero's death.
In both appearances, Flynn was portrayed by Academy Award-winning actor Jeff Bridges.
