Capitalizing on the hype of Disney’s relaunch of 80’s sci-fi classic Tron, Break just launched its own original parody video starring adult film star Ron Jeremy, entitled Tron: Jeremy.
The video is reminiscent of Jack Black’s parody of Lord of the Rings for the MTV Movie Awards. The spoof seamlessly inserts Jeremy into the real trailer for Tron: Legacy, the highly anticipated remake of the 1983 classic which comes out in theaters today.
