“Tron: Ares” is set for release in October 2025.
Reznor and his frequent film score collaborator Atticus Ross, who joined NIN in ’16, have scored more than a dozen films, including 2010’s “The Social Network” and this year’s “Challengers”.
“Tron: Ares” will officially be the first score attributed to Nine Inch Nails, will have news songs from the band since their fifth and sixth installments of the “Ghosts” series (which was released in ’20).
“Tron: Ares”, directed by Joachim Rønning, began production in Vancouver in January. It will be the third installment in the “Tron” franchise, following the 1982 original, which starred a young Jeff Bridges, and the 2010 sequel, “Tron: Legacy”.
According to a press release, the film centres around a highly sophisticated program, Ares (Jared Leto), who is sent from the digital world into the real world on a dangerous mission, marking humankind’s first encounter with A.I. beings.
Joining Leto in the cast are Greta Lee, Evan Peters, Hasan Minhaj, Jodie Turner-Smith, Arturo Castro, Cameron Monaghan and Gillian Anderson.
How creative is Reznor and Ross? Damn. Those guys seem to be taking over scoring Hollywood movies!
