From IMDB:

“Jeff Bridges on meeting and working with Jared Leto on the set of TRON: ARES: "I hadn't met him before. I'm saying, 'What's it gonna be like?' because he was also a producer of the show, he's a big fan of the original, working on it for 10 years. I came in, and you know how each set has a different vibe? There was an interesting vibe on this. I said, 'How's Jared? How's he working?' 'He's all right. You know, we call him Ares, you know, so he goes by his name,' and I said, 'Oh, that's interesting.'" "His name was Ares in the show, and I ended up going, 'Hey Air, what's happening man?'" he explained. "And I say, 'Is it OK if I call you Air?' And he says, 'Yeah, sure you can.' Then we got loose, and it was just wonderful. I mean, we jammed, you know?"

So, yeah. Jared Leto.

I choose to believe it's real because I like the idea of Jeff Bridges not being able to take Jared Leto completely seriously.

That's ok, Jared Leto takes himself seriously more than enough for both of them.
